On a Spiritual Note

To emphasize how important creativity is, I've included this video by President Dieter F. Uchtdorf. I think one of my favorite parts is when it says, "Creativity does not require a brush, a pen, or the keys of a piano..." I think that is what comes to mind when most of us think of creativity or talent, but even a living prophet of the church has proved this wrong.





Improve
Beautify
Extend
Smile
Cultivate
Develop


So, when you think you have nothing to offer the world, think again. Look at this list and realize that anyone can do any one of these things. Smiling is a form of creativity and anyone can smile.

Crafty Headwear

I love almost everything about hair. I want to be a hair stylist one day and possibly own my own salon. I also love making crafts. So, I decided to combine my love of both things and make headbands. Besides using my crafty capabilities and good eye for color, I tried to put a new spin on my creations. I made all the flowers detachable so that they could be used on either headbands or on clips. Another advantage of detachable flowers is that you can combine them with all sorts of different colored headbands depending on what you're wearing. I think they turned out great and I'm so excited to model them in the real world.
