My princess goes to Awana at our church. Last week was crazy hair night. She was looking all week for the perfect, crazy hairstyle and was thrilled when we found this one at Craftzine.
She looked absolutely adorable and it was so easy to do.
This is how I did it:
First, I put her hair in pony tails. Next, I cut a wire that ran from one side of her hair to the other side and shaped it around her head. ( I used the wire that we are using to hang the ceiling in our basement. You could also use an old coat hanger.)
Then I took out the pig tail on the other side and started braiding. I kept the wire in one of my three stands of hair as I continued braiding.
Then I just did it to the other side. I cut off any extra wire and turned them up.
Blessings,

My mothere did this to my hair when I was in third grade (which was a LONG time ago) I was Pipi Long Stocking. Seeing your daughters hair brought back the memory that I had forgotten all about 🙂

Reminds me of my hairstyle in my school days. My om used to braid so tight it would stand up at the ends.
