Sometimes the smallest things can make the outfit. For my daughter, she loves to wear belts with her pants. She doesn't really NEED them, but she likes them and I can't say no. I could not find belts that we liked last year, so I just bought some cheap ones that, of course, peeled paint off of and looked kind of icky after a few months. I saw a friend post pictures of some homemade belts she made for her sons and I thought, gee, I can do that!!
Since I have creative kids who find solid colors boring, I looked at this tutorial for something a little different:
I took the kids to Joann's and let them pick out their favorite ribbons. (This could also be a great project to use up ribbons you have stashed up!)
Then, silly me, forgot to look at this tutorial when I actually sat down to MAKE the belts... so the ribbon doesn't wrap around to the other side... oops. Thankfully my kids love what I do, even with I mess up. Ah unconditional love. It's awesome!
