A Pocket Full of Posies

When your daughter is begging to stick 6,000 glittery clips in her hair, sometimes the plain old barrette doesn't cut it. So I've come up with this motto: "All bling in moderation unless you are Carmen Electra." And even then I can't say it's the greatest choice.

But the wool felt clips from Little Pink Posies? They most definitely are.

Created by stay-at-home-mom Leigh Houston, these pretty posies feature felt, silk flowers, and rhinestone crystals, without getting too sparkly for my liking. The alligator clips sport just enough gripper to ensure that it stays on, and they come packaged in a lovely decorated box for your gift giving pleasure.

Along with my love of her clips, I can't help but mention Leigh's personalized custom painted doll pendants which are just as delightful. Doesn't every little girl need a mini-me? -Kristen

Congratulations to Sammantha D, winner of the clip and necklace!
