accessories giveaway!

Did you know I refuse to watch the first 10-20 videos that are published on the blog? It’s literally painful to see how uncomfortable I am in front of the camera.

I never inteneded on being the girl styling the hair. When the idea of hair tutorials came to me, I searched and searched on youtube so I wouldn’t have to make them myself.

I couldn’t find what I was looking for, so I filmed a few.

People kind of like them.

So I kept filming.

And here I am, a year and a half later, still filming.

but still needing a LOT of editing. . .

this video features many blank stares, a Grits cameo, and the voice of my sister. And lots of awkwardness.

Thanks for sharing this! I loved it and it shows the “realness” of putting yourself out there. I have been putting off vlogging for a long time. I just can’t get up enough courage to put myself out there. 😉

Super cute. I still can’t believe that it’s only been a year. I am thinking I must have discovered you when you were just a rookie. Ironic because I thought you had been vlogging for years! Keep posting! I love it. I just did the latest big hair (Reese) with head band and received literally 10 or more comments. I always reply with “Thanks, check out Kate @thesmallthingsblog and you can do it too” 🙂

I am at my desk at work with headphones in. It took everything I had not to audibly crack up. I was shaking because I was trying so hard not to laugh out loud. When Grits hit you in the face with his tail–oh, man. I need to get myself together here.

Can I simply just say what a relief to discover an individual who really understands what they’re talking about on the web. You actually understand how to bring an issue to light and make it important. A lot more people ought to look at this and understand this side of the story. I can’t believe you’re not more popular because you most certainly possess the gift.
