Tutorial: How to make an easy knit headwrap-for FREE

My little queen bees are BUSY girls! They spend their days in constant motion: playing, swimming, dancing…
Our go-to hair accessory for comfortably maintaining neat hair, while still looking stylish, is a wrap headband.
My Iyla Rue has been rockin’ the head wraps since before she could walk! They are her absolute FAV!

Wear one with a top knot, with a pony, or with hair au’ natural; no matter how you style it -
you and your little lady will love the look of these wraps!
Want to know a secret? These wraps are EASY to make! Seriously, EASY!
*AND* You can make one for FREE… or very close to it!  Here’s the scoop:

Tutorial: Make a Ruffle Swimsuit Cover

I hope y’all are having a GREAT summer! My fam and I are having a wonderfully laid-back summer!
Lots of lazy days in the backyard, eating ice cream for lunch and soaking up the sunshine in our pool.
Most days, my girls are in their swimsuits from sun-up to sun-down; just the way summer should be! ;)

In the spirit of deliciously-laid-back summers, I’ve created this tutorial for making an easy, breezy, swimsuit cover!
