Horses! Horses! Horses! Horses!

Sorry, I’ve got Christmas carols stuck in my head!

I just listed some of my newest creations… Smarmy hair clips!  This is just a small selection of what I’ve got… phew!

To celebrate, I’m giving away a free hair clip with every clip purchased until January 1st, 2010! They make great gifts (especially stocking stuffers!).

Speaking of gifts, check out this treasury I made, featuring tons of my very talented fellow street team ladies from AttackoftheCraft.com!
