Handmade love

Hello lovely friends and happy Monday!

This weekend I stayed fairly low key as I was on the mend after the flu, but I did go home because my little sister got baptized. Exciting! I made her a journal to use for devos or any such thing she wishes.

Other craftiness was crocheting, I made a head band from this pattern it was super duper simple. The only problem I had was this it was too big, maybe I just have a small head?! So my solution to the problem was to make a decorative knot on one side of the head band. I really like it and it stays on my head really well too.

You can't really see the knot in this picture but there are so many fun things that can be added to this simple headband. I was thinking of making one for my friend but adding a flower to it. That is my craftiness for today. Don't forget to come back to more as I share more of my owl love with you!

Blessings,
Amber
