Haircut


On Saturday, Amanda and I had Mom cut our hair. When Amanda saw the pile of our combined hair she cried “We’re bald!”

The new style is not much different, just shorter. We both like our new cut very much!

    oh and Erica, is there any way where you can give the option to ’subscribe to comments’ so I wouldn’t have to come back here for responses? thanks!

    Ruth Ann: At the very bottom of the page there is an option to subscribe to comments. If you have any trouble, just let me know and I’ll try to fix it.

    I agree with Rachel…you girls are absolutely gorgeous (both inside and out)!

    Ruth Ann: I think my mom learned from a book. She just uses something to measure our hair with and cuts it all the same length. For a quick layering, I like to have my sisters hang their head over a counter or table and I just cut it off straight. When the stand up, their hair is layered!

Head over to Ruffled to download the free template for an airmail envelope. I printed mine on brown paper and added a vintage stamp.
You can also download this free font to get many wonderful vintage postage images such as the one below.
Enjoy!

At my Grandma’s house, there is a large picture window facing her backyard. It provides gorgeous lighting, and the rest of the house is so dark that it fades away.
I’m sort of “into” vintage at the moment, as my editing of this photo reflects.
