My daughter wanted to be Princess Leia for Halloween one year, but the wig that came with the costume wouldn't fit over her thick black hair, so I had to scour the internet to find out how to do the Princess Leia buns. As this layout reveals, it took a few tries to get something that didn't look like a scraggly mess!

Slice of Life & Let's Wander papers (American Crafts)
Sapphire, Goldrush & White Daisy cardstock
