Ponytails with zig-zag part


Using a rat-tail comb, part the hair in a zig-zag down the center. Pull into two ponytails. Add ribbons for a cute finishing touch.

Double twisted bun




Pull the hair into a low ponytail. Section into two pieces. Twist one piece and secure with bobby pins. Twist the second section and wrap the opposite way. Leave the ends out for flipping.

Two braid buns inter-twined with ribbon

Make two ponytails at the crown. Tie a long length of ribbon and section the ponys into two. Using the ribbon as the third piece, braid. Fasten at the ends with an elastic. Wrap the braid into buns securing with bobby pins. Tie a ribbon at the base.

Two-braids pulled together at the crown




Two ponytails tied in knots




This one was much cuter before she came home from school. I took the ponytails and twisted them and tied them in knots at the base. I secured the knots with bobby pins.

where in the world is eric?

On Friday, with about 20 hours notice, Eric got shipped off to Portal, North Dakota to test samples of wheat gluten coming into the US from Canada. So Finn and I spend a nice quiet weekend at home. Dog parks and a walk around Green Lake, and I got some work done on the old term paper. Got me a dress for Emily's wedding, though I'm having second thoughts (how blue is too blue?). Eric comes home on Thursday.... I can't wait.
