nye glitter hat :: diy :: holiday

with only a few days left until nye - i'm wondering what you glitter gals are wearing?!  we usually do something pretty low-key, but i always add a little something special to my outfit for the celebration.  even if we just have a family movie night at home - the kiddos love it when i look silly.  this year, i have made mini-hats out of paper cups.  here's the diy:

1. paint cone-shaped paper cup.  these can be found at your office water cooler :)
2. before the paint dries, cover with glitter
3. after dry, shake off excess and then embellish with a pom and ribbon.  or tinsel.  or more glitter.  or charms.  or whatever you want!
4. hot glue to a headband.

fun right?!  i knew you would agree.

that time of year again

it's that time of year again when we are beginning to pull out the hats & gloves.  my family has a big linen box full of hats, but of course i'll buy a few new ones this year anyway.  here are some great ones i found on etsy today:

this adorable cupcake hat was created by l.a. originals just kidz.  what a great birthday picture accessory!

this penguin crochet hat by natty hatty makes me giggle.  perfect for your little snow bunny.

funky chunky poofy pom pom hat - great name, great hat!  kikiskreations has all kinds of fun hats like this for your child.  you  can even customize it by picking your own colors!

this flapper hat by melissa happy stuff would look lovely with my winter coat.  my "pseudo hubby" wouldn't have any troubles finding me in a crowd with those fabulous flowers!

i have to admit that i really hate kissing a face with facial hair.  it's scratchy and for some reason, my skin turns all red and blotchy.  of course, "psuedo hubby" wishes this wasn't so, because he wants nothing more than to grow his own beard!  i think gunderson limited has found us a compromise!  this wild man bearded hat is my very favorite.
