Purple Poppie Hair Pin

I was recently given this pretty hair pin from my sweet friend Abigail. She makes and sells these kind of hair pins along with her sister in their Etsy shop: simpleSerendipities . Their shop is closing down right now and so everything is on sale 40% off the listed price. Just enter the coupon code JULYSALE at checkout. You have to hurry though since the sale ends August 1st!

Purple is one of my favorite colors and I adore poppies...how did she know?!:) Needless to say I'm having fun finding different ways to wear it. I have waist length hair that is fairly thick and heavy so I often do updos to keep it neat. I divided my hair in half (top and bottom) and then formed the top into a shell bun and the bottom into a regular bun. I got inspiration for this from Rapunzel's Resource .

Here are some other pretty things they are selling:
carnation clips
yellow posies
turquoise rosette headband

These are simply beautiful. My daughter makes her own hair barrettes. We used to have hair down to our waist but now it is just in the middle of our backs. We are still trying to decide if we want to grow it out again. We are very busy and often do not have the time to care for longer hair, but shorter hair limits the styles you can do. The Scriptures tell us to not place our value in such things, yet is does not say we cannot do it. We love to have a day occasionally where we just play with styles and have a special tea party. Then it is back to life as usually, but it is like a mini vacation.
