hair. surfboards. heart garlands

DIY heart garlands. 2 styles.




what you'll need:
magazines or catalogs, brown paper bags (its a great way to recycle)
scissors
thread
sewing machine
 
tear out a page, fold in half and cut out as many hearts as you want.
in many different sizes.

 
figure out which direction you would like to sew them.

 
just feed the heart right in. 

 
i like to have some space between the hearts, so they can rotate.

 
 this is how it should look. i use two colors of thread.

 
dont throw these away. you can use these in another garland, or you can glue them to card stock and make a cute card.

 
garland type 1

 
finger knit how- to
watch it's super easy.
  
garland type 2 :finger knit garland with magazine cut outs.

another idea for all your hearts.
make a trail of hearts for someone to follow.
the paper heart trail.
 
are you curious?

oh and i keep forgetting.
brandi

bc they are too much fun.

 I am hoping my Valentine's day this year includes, my friends smiling and knowing they are loved by jacob and i. and maybe a cute lil gift from jacob. 

2. My biggest guilty pleasure is i dont feel guilty about any of my pleasures. haha. im with lauren on this one...reality tv ugh! like the bachlor

3. I am most proud of my husband jacob for being the best husband(#1 rocksatr) who is also so so patient with me and my cousin taylor for writing the prettiest songs and such beautiful music. (finnegan)


4. If I could choose one outfit to live in it would be my tye dye pants that jacob hates, and a tee shirt and flip flops:) 

5. People are amazing. they amaze me with how awful/selfish they could be one day and how awesome/loving they can be the next. i love my peoples.

6. I would rather be busy working with my hands than just sitting around. I love to work! its hard for me to just relax.

7. I love my  nephew ryder more than words could ever explain. he makes me want a baby. next year.

hairdressers on fire!!!!

so my friend grace had an idea. for all the hairdressers on montrose to come together and each month we have a class! one of us will teach the class a technique and we all get inspired and educated for free!
brandon taught the first class today at our studio while we ate breakfast tacos and soaked in everything. success!!! this is just what we needed. i am seriously so excited about these classes. i love learning from all the creative people around me. and its awesome that we all want to better eachother, bc there are a lot of competitive jealous (insecure) people in this business. NOT US! love it!
