How to do the High Ponytail

Hi!  Today, I'll be showing how I do high ponytails.  High ponies are super cute and look great with almost every outfit.

Gather your hair on top of your head.  That's right, ON TOP.  (I recommend holding your doll upside down and then gathering the hair up with your free hand.)

Secure with a hair elastic.  Brush out the pony, remember to brush out the underside too.

Spread the hair out (like the picture below) and comb.  I recommend putting one hand around the elastic and laying the hair on top of the hand and then combing.  Fluff it out and adjust it until you like the look.

Doesn't it look so cute?

Make a Bow Tie Necklace

Another post today!  If you want to add a little glam and style to spice up an outfit then the bow tie necklace is for you!
You're going to need:
-felt
-hot glue gun
-scissors
-necklace chain (You can find these at a craft store.)

Cut a rectangle of felt about an inch wide and 3 inches long.

Pinch the rectangle in the middle to make a bow shape.

Add a tiny dab of hot glue just enough to barely hold the pinch together.  This is very important.  Use the smallest bit of glue as possible.

Cut another strip of felt about a 1/2 inch wide and 2 1/2-3 inches long.

Place the bow on top of the chain.  Make sure to line the bow up so its exactly in the middle.  Push the chain up in to the pinch.

Wrap the other piece of felt around the bow and chain to hold them together.  Hot glue the end in place.

You're finished!

DIY Lace Pockets

Hey girls!  Are you ready for spring?  I certainly am.  And now, since the weather has begun to warm up a little, I wanted to spice up some of my old spring/summer clothes.  Since lace is so in right now, I thought, why not lace pockets? 
You're going to need:
-a pair of shorts, capris, or jeans
-lace
-scissors
-pins
-sewing machine or needle and thread

First, pin the lace onto one of the back pockets.

Cut the lace out around the pocket.  Trim to fit the pocket and then repeat on the other pocket.

This part can be a bit tricky, so take your time.  Sew the lace onto the pocket about an 1/8 of an inch away from the edge.  DON'T sew the top part.  Just the sides and bottom.  Make sure you sew it to only the back parts of the shorts, not the front part.  Do this for the other pocket.  Now your done!

Enjoy your "new" shorts/capris/jeans!
