It's kind of hard to tell in this picture, but this is the mullet of skirts -- short in the front and long in the back.  I almost said "business in the front, party in the back," but realized that's actually reversed when we're talking hemlines :)

Every spring I'm tempted to plant a garden.  Nothing crazy, just a few flower beds to add a pop of color to my front yard.  But I never seem to get around to it.  Flowers are kind of, well, needy, and I just don't know if I have what it takes to keep them going all summer.  These barrettes, on the other hand, require just a touch of felt and glue to keep them bright and blooming forever.  Plus, I can make them while watching TV as opposed to down in the dirt in the sun :)
