~Fancy Bun Tutorial~
I got one of these hair donuts/ bun holders whatever you like to call them a while ago and I wore it out! I used it almost on a daily basis to throw my hair up and make it look like I had put some effort in! Today I decided to have a play with it in a different way on my sisters hair.
She has very fine, curly and as you will see very frizzy hair that tangles quickly, so most of the time she wears it up.

Firstly I combed her hair using a Tangle Teaser, then worked in some smoothing cream through the ends of her hair first and then towards her scalp.
Next I sectioned the hair in half securing the top half in a ponytail.
After that I slid the hair donuts over the ponytails I used one from Equip for under $10. Shape the hair around the donuts and secure with a hair tie.
Next I sectioned the remaining hair down the middle with a comb.
I then twisted the hair up and around the bun securing it with a bobby pin.
Doing the same to the other side this do is done!
I finished this look off with a gorgeous clip from Vintage Spice to dress it up some more.
This look would be great for a flower girl, bridesmaid or any dressed up occasion! Super easy but looks interesting and sophisticated!

Do you know how much I love you?
Yes Vintage Spice is a business.
Yes Vintage Spice provides me and my family with a source of income.
No Vintage Spice is not just a job.
I don't work 9-5 (it's more like 7pm-3am with little bits done during the day) I don't get the same pay check every week and I can't call a guy when I don't know what to do.
Vintage Spice is a part of my life and a part of my families life, you may have seen my husband at markets maybe even my daughter. My father-in-law made my amazing displays that make it so easy for you to see my products. My mum watches my daughter when I go away for markets and fairs and my niece has even helped me at a few markets.
So do you know how much I love you..... I don't think you do. Every smile when you see my products, that comment to your friend that what I make is really pretty, that you wish you had a girl you could buy things for because they are so lovely. All of these little things even if you don't make a purchase means the world to me.
My customers who have worn things to weddings, special occasions and even babies coming home from the hospital with a little Vintage Spice headband on. These are all moments that you will treasure with photos to remember them by and something I made with the same hands that are typing this got to be apart of that. It's actually really overwhelming to me, while I know it sounds absolutely ridiculous to everyone else! I make hair clips for crying out loud!!! The fact that I get to bring joy to other people through doing something I love makes it all so worth it!
When I first started this business almost 2 years ago I had no idea what I was doing, how I was going to do it or where it was going to lead but I am here! I'm still in business, our products have grown, our brand has evolved and our customers (and my family) have come along for the ride. I would not have been able to do this without your support. I put a lot of pressure on myself to succeed, to provide you with products that you will love, that will last at a price that makes them accessible to everyone.
Do you think I make a lot of money by selling a person one $2 hair clip-no I don't, but if that little girl or women or toy poodle walks down the street feeling awesome with their new bow in their hair it is so worth it!!
So I guess this is my long winded, way too emotional thank you for all of your support and love that you show me! Remember this business is me, I write the blogs, I make the products, I do the website stuff, email you answering your questions, talk to you at markets and posts silly pictures on Facebook. If you want to purchase from a handmade business you are looking at it! Even our bags are handmade using a stamp we brought from another small business and bags purchased 2 hours away from our house because it was the best deal!
I love it when you share your photos of you wearing your clips, or walking up the aisle carrying a bouquet I spent 35 hours making. I love it when you comment on blog posts and Facebook photos and I love getting to know you as people.
Thank you for bringing joy into my life by admiring what I create and I hope I have brought some to yours too, even if it was with a headband!
