"Mother knows best"

Sage is in love with Tangled!! She loves the songs and loves to quote it. So my mom and I went to the Disney store to see if they had some Rapunzel hair and they do. 2 problems... number 1, it was synthetic hair, one snag on that braid and it would come apart real fast. Problem 2, it was like $45, I don't do $45 for something that my 2 year old will drag around. So we went to the fabric store instead and made these!! :D

I didn't take pictures of how I made the braid (sorry) but I will do my best to try and explain it.

Have 1 person hold one end and rapped it around another person till you undo the whole roll of yarn. At the top of one end take a piece of yarn and tie it.

Then braid one long braid. Measure your child's head and make a circle that size with your braid. With yarn hand sew together to make a the head part of the braid.



Take some flowers from a wreath that never happened and glue them on with a hot glue gun.

There you go!



Sage decided to wear her Rapunzel braid to story time where lots of moms just loved her hair. I tried to explain to them how to make them but I think I confused them.

Upon request of moms from story time I will be selling these Rapunzel braids for $15.00. I have several orders for them but can have them to you in 2 days for. Flowers will be different just send me a measurement of your child's head and their height. If you make the braid I would love to see pictures!! post them on facebook and tag me!
