A mini-me for your mini-she
Rarely do I bemoan the fact that my daughter won't tolerate anything in her hair, but when I first saw these mini me custom felt portraits from Emandsprout, I couldn't stop thinking of how utterly adorable a portrait barrette would look in her blond hair.

Send in a photo and the the artist will turn it into a custom felt portrait that can be made into a hair clip, headband, or brooch--any of which would be a super cute way to accessorize an outfit. Emandsprout's creations are known for being impeccably made, and her whimsy extends to a huge offering of adult shoes as well as many more hair accessories, clothing, and other fun items.

The more I think about it, I could use the brooch to label my daughter's backpack or to spruce up last year's winter hat. Or adorn her favorite scarf. The possibilities could be endless. -Carrie
