Headbands By Bijou...

Quite some time ago I designed 6 different styles of headbands and I finally got around to making the pattern and cutting the felt and finding the beads and buttons and putting it all together for the first 'prototype'...here is the finished headband...


I am going to making 5 or 6 at once very soon and put them up for sale in my Etsy shop, they'll be between $35-$50, because they are all hand-stitched/handmade made with care by me...the other 5 designs I've conjured up are just as cute...

...What do you think?

A New Headband...Caring Bunny...And The Sickies....

Well it would appear that January is not off to a great start! First I was feeling lethargic about getting into my studio after two slothful weeks off!...than when I was ready to get to some work I was struck down by a week of head pain forcing me into bed the last couple days of the run...NOW I've been sick with a cold and today I can barely talk! Fun fun fun over here in the studio and warren of Bijou's Whimsy, ha ha... BUT! I did get a new headband made for myself to go with my ski jacket....I felt the need for a new ear warmer...I did granny squares than after putting them together I added white glass beads and a big beautiful wooden button on the back with some stretch cord that it easy to wear...I am happy with it, what do you think? As I lay bundled up on the couch and lean over to peer over the side, this sweet little face more often than not greets me....

Our Ella-Luna is such a special girl and has always been very caring and has always worried when I am sick...if I am in the bed with a bad migraine she jumps up on the bed constantly to check on me...or like this past week, if I am bundled up on the couch with a cold, she comes into the living room and just sits there and stares and watches me for hours on end...it's pretty darn sweet...she's the only one of our rabbits whose ever done this and she doesn't seem to do it when Jon is the sickie, just me:D.... Eventually when she's been assured that I am okay and won't die! She hunkers down and lets me bundle her up in part of my blanket and she snoozes with me....but when I am perfectly fine and not sick she won't let me bundle her!.....

Like I said....One Very Special Bunny:D....Well back to my sickie spot, my speacil girl, my cough drops and Gilmore Girls...I've never seen this show so thought I'd give it a try...
