Anyway, this weekend Charlotte and I went through all of the Christmas storage boxes to see what we had before we start buying more. Very wise. We found some stationery that I bought for her letters to Santa, and we wrote and mailed her list!
Of course Charlotte found all of the singing Elmo's and Rudolph's and has been pressing
So in the spirit of the holidays I whipped up a little tutorial for you! Charlotte loves this headband that I made for her and I do too. It really was so easy and looks lovely!You can use this pattern and make barrettes, holiday embellishments, headbands, bracelets...endless possibilities.
Poinsettia headband
Supply list
- green felt
- red felt
- hot glue gun or any glue really
- a headband, I use the ones that come in a pack of 5 and are different colors
- my poinsettia template
- buttons for the center of the flowers, I used a snowflake button. You could also use white or yellow felt for the center.
- Cut out your felt using my template!
- Begin gluing starting with the green leaves, overlapping so that you have 8 leaves instead of 4 showing.
- Repeat with the red, layering biggest to smallest.
- Finish with a button for the center.
- Enjoy!

The handband and the "model" are so pretty -what a sweet gift to make.
This is probably one of the prettiest headbands I've ever seen. And your model is just beautiful!
I found you through Made by You Mondays on Skip to My Lou.
This headband is so cute. I think that I will make one for a little one in my life. Thanks.
The headband is so sweet. Perfect for the holidays. Have a wonderful week.
Lovely headband!! I may have to make one for my little girl!!!
OK, I definitely want one but don't want to make it. Have you thought about pricing this out? I'd love to buy at least one ...
I am oh so excited to find this tutorial! I was just trying to figure out how to make a poinsetta bow to go with a Christmas outfit for my dd! Love, love, love it! Thanks for the tutorial! BTW: I love the name of your blog...I call my dd Sophie Lou Who..
That is beautiful. Thanks for sharing. I am going to print out the template now and get busy.
It is so pretty, and it looks adorable on your daughter!

I just made two of these last night for my niece and her best friend. They came out so adorably perfect! Thanks for sharing this wonderful gift to make for my little niece. I think even my 13 y.o. is going to ask for one!
Just curious-- what is the actual size of the flowers meant to be? The google doc opens an image waaay bigger than a piece of paper. Can't wait to make one though!
So sweet! I'm including it in my Friday Favorites this week!
Asking questions are truly good thing if you are not understanding something totally, however this
paragraph gives fastidious understanding yet.

It's genuinely very complex in this busy life to listen news on TV, so I simply use internet for that purpose, and take the hottest information.
