ANASTASIA: 'Disney' Princess Inspired Collection

So, Anastasia isn't a Disney movie...  Oh well... :)



"Heart don't fail me now,
Courage don't desert me"


"Just wishing I could do the job for you, sir. I'd give her a HA! And a HI-YA! And then a OUU-WA! And I'd kick her, sir."


Let's get started! Woot! Woot!
1. Gather Supplies. (Lace, Flower, Embellishments, Glue, Headband...)
2.Cut strip of lace to desired width. Leave enough room to attach to headband.

3.Embellish flower if desired.
4. Attach flower to headband. Finish with backing.

YAY! Now, time to take pictures of myself...


~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Wanna know something totally awesome????

...about my Daddy...

My Daddy is a stud. Seriously.

Here are the flowers he got my Mom this week, just because.
Also, he's the hardest worker I know. He did our entire landscaping by hand, by himself. (We have 2750 bricks that he placed <all by hand> for the terracing around our house.)

Poor guy, has all girls, but because of him:
 I know how to take care of myself.
I can somewhat fix cars.
I can stand on my own and be self sufficient.
I can last longer in any other labor intense task than most girls.
I love people and help those in need.
I think the most important thing my Daddy has taught me (Yes, I call him Daddy) is how I'm suppose to be treated. I'm very blessed to have parents who love and respect each other. (Sometimes the lovin' part is a little gross...)

 I know how MEN are suppose to treat women.

Thanks Daddy. I love you.

Thanks for stopping by my blog!


Mucho love!

I love your headband, I have to say in the picture of you wearing it I was reminded of Amy Andrews..........I love your blog about your dad it is so very important for a daughter to feel loved and know not to accept anything less from a man and if a father is displaying these feelings to a girls mom it really makes the girl turn into a secure woman who will find a man who treats her well.! I ran across your blog from between naps on the porch. It was a delightful visit, come by my place sometime!

Regina said...

OMGOSH...love this headband. It looks awesome on you too. Such a beautiful model!! Of course I may have to borrow this idea down the road...I will link back up to you if I do get to do it. I feel like the white rabbit from Alice these days "I'm late..I'm late" LOL

Such a sweet story about your Daddy. (and there is nothing wrong with calling him that either..I'm ancient and I called mine that up til he passed away in 2007) He has brought up a very loving, caring and strong woman.

Hugs for an awesome Monday,
Regi

Oh he-eey! I adore this headband. I think I've adored every disney themed hair decoration you've made. Yep, pretty sure I have. I think you've got no choice BUT to open an etsy shop. People just like your work waaaay too much for you to not sell it. :)

Anestazia said...

Hey there! I've really enjoyed your princess-inspired pieces, but I think this one is my favorite. Maybe its because my name is Anestazia (just spelled a little different). Anyways, I loved this one so much that I featured it on my blog! The post will be up in the morning, if you want to check it out!
