My new model Estella (Stella)

2010-04-16T00:00:00.000-07:00

I am so excited to announce that I have a new model to model my hair accessories! Her name is Estella Jane but I call her Stella.
She is wonderful to work with, very quiet and still.
She always stays where I put her, and never tries to pull her hair accessories off or look the other way when I am snapping her picture!
( unlike my former model Ava)
She never gets bored or tired, although she is not much for conversation.
I am really excited to have her as my model
( not near as excited as Ava and the boys!)
Yes, I make my boys try on my hair stuff sometimes!
Keep it on the down low!
So with out further a do her she is folks made in China,
Miss Stella Jane!
