Being a stay-at-home mom is a tough job. I feel overwhelmed most days yet there is still a part of me that needs something to do.

The beauty of this idea? It cost me next to nothing (insert Kevin's sigh of relief here). The woven headbands are $0.75 at the local craft store. The fabric flowers cost me absolutely nothing. I used scraps that I had stored away (I
knew they'd come in handy one day!).
