Headband Tutorial... sort of - May 18, 10:16
When my hair started falling out I decided to stop pulling it back into ponytails, french knots, french braids and the odd french twist to see if that would help. It did. But it left me with the unfortunate problem as to what to do with my shoulder length hair. I finally decided to start making headbands and happily cast on for Molly’s Headband (available in the “Sweet Somethings” .pdf linked at the bottom of the page). Halfway through I got bored, decided that it was ugly and threw it aside in favor for a fabric headband. After browsing around looking at various headband styles I found one I really liked, this retro-type headband and as luck would have it I found a pattern for a very similar headband: Best Band Ever

Your first Textpattern theme - Apr 21, 02:17
It is no secret that I am a Textpattern fangirl, I have been a Textpattern fangirl since, oh well since August. I love it for its easy to grab tags and template system. That said, Textpattern is not for everyone, particularly if you do not design your own blog and prefer to download themes.
Installing a Textpattern theme is easy enough to do, but it is a far cry from the upload’n’activate it system Wordpress uses. However, if you are like me and enjoy installing blogging platforms just to modify them then you might actually like Textpattern, particularly if you dislike Wordpress.
I switched to Textpattern after becoming frustrated with EECore and disgusted by Wordpress, I have not looked back since. I cannot imagine being without pages and forms, nor without Textile.
It is a lovely system that is simple to use and geared more towards people who want a hands on experience, whereas Wordpress holds your hand and throws bloated bits and pieces at you in an attempt to make your website as effortless as they possibly can.
This is geared towards newbies. The Alphabetical Tag Listing was quite helpful and I picked it up quickly just tinkering. But there are some people who need to see real time examples before they go about reading up on everything, so if that is you then this is for you.
