More Crazy hair Days!!!

These are a little late, from earlier this school year.  We had fun this year with Crazy hair day.  Geneve wanted to have a tree in her hair so this is what we came up with!  She was so funny, she wanted me to add a tire swing and birds as well.  I told her I thought this was enough... she makes it so fun! 
Here are some pictures...
In case you were wondering, we used a real branch to form the hair around, it made it much more realistic. There is a foam shape at the top of her head - this makes things really light, and the branch was stuck into this making it really sturdy. I hot glued leaves to hair clips and that helped keep things attached. Also, the ends of each branch we used those teeny plastic hair bands to attach the braided end, that made everything stay as well. And brown and black spray paint here and there. The only problem was the real branch would break when I played with it too much. I stuck in skewers in spots I had broken. Using a plastic branch may have worked better, but this lasted all day, so this was fine. The leaves on the clips also made it easy to attach to her clothing, making it look like the leaves were falling down. It may look like it was complicated, but it was actually so easy, using the branch made it form quickly. She already came up with what she wants for next year, she is too funny!

 
This is the funniest picture of her at her desk working away...
