I only have one picture of the steps (sorry.) I wasn't planning on posting this at the time I was doing it! It's actually very easy though. Just make some pigtails and braid in a ribbon or scarf on each side. (I didn't have two scarfs available, so I added one to only one of the braids. Whatever works for you!) Leave out some of the scarf hanging on both the top and bottom of the braid to make bows later.
Next, position the braids over the top of her head and sew them into place with a plastic needle and ribbon. Tuck the ends of the braids in with bobby pins of you need to. Then, make some bows on each side with the leftover ribbon or scarf.
This took less than 10 minutes!
K, I posted this quick....... in record time! Hope it makes sense, lol. And now I'm REALLY done. I haven't even started wrapping (or cooking, or cleaning.) aaack
Super cute - and yes, it makes sense. =) Thank you and Merry Christmas!
ReplyDeleteholy smokes - that is just adorable! It would probably take me the entire 12 days of Christmas to get it to look that good.
ReplyDeleteOh this one is gorgeous! I think I may actually be able to DO that one! Ha!
ReplyDeleteThis is very cute and festive! I love it!
ReplyDeletethat is soooo pretty! I can't wait until Taylor's hair is long enough!!
ReplyDeleteI really like this hairstyle. It kinda looks like a crown
ReplyDeleteI love it! I can't wait to try the ribbon tied stuff. :) Maybe I'll come up with a way to adapt it for short hair!
ReplyDeleteThis is really cute! I love how you braided the ribbon into her pony tails. Cute! Thanks for sharing! :)
ReplyDeleteYour blog is so cute. I love doing my girls hair. I posted your blog so that all of my white friends could see it and try some styles on their girls hair.
ReplyDeleteDo you have to wash out her hair the next day? I ask because I heard that white women wash their hair daily?
Zinnada<><
Zinnada, Thank you! Actually I wash her hair 2-3 times per week. I've heard washing a little girls hair daily is damaging and can dry it out.
ReplyDeleteVery cute! I love it :)
ReplyDeleteI have always wondered how to do this! thanks!

ReplyDeleteI love this one, so cute! I have a red scarf just like that. Glad you mentioned you only used 1 scarf :)
ReplyDeleteWe did a variation on this with narrower ribbon and small braids at the front of the head. My daughter got a zillion compliments. We left the braids in and redid it in a minute the next morning too!
