Blog Filler (but cute blog filler)

Blog Filler (but cute blog filler)

cathyzielske.com | cute short hair
They say to have a popular blog, you should fill it with engaging photos of people, places and things.

Aidan, in our home, on our couch. BOOM!

She cut her hair off last week and holy cute, is it adorable.

Only once in her life did I disapprove of a hairstyle. She was 7 and got her bangs cut while on a hair cut outing with her Dad. I didn’t love it and she knew it.

I have apologized to her for that ridiculous reaction for years.

It’s not my head.

You go girl.

And with that, we’re off to her University of Minnesota New student orientation.

    I’m sure you sometimes post a photo of yourself from that age looking very similar.

    I don’t see posts like this as filler at all – I love the mix of scrap booking, real life & family life. Thanks for sharing and have a wonderful day together!!

    OMG I love that cut! Would you ask Aidan if she would model all sides of it so that I can show my hairdresser? That’s exactly what I’ve been trying to do with my hair, but she doesn’t really get it.

        I wonder the same thing.

        Aidan is beautiful and young and her face shape is gorgeous. I am old and average and have a blockhead. Not sure I can get away with such cute hair. Nonetheless, I would love to see the sides and back, too!

        My son Jack is at the U and loves it! I did, too, back in the 80s!

    That is an awesome haircut. It says so much … I’m whimsical & fun. I’m well groomed but not high maintenance. I’m smart & confidant. I am in control.
    I love it !

    Had to laugh when I read your comment about not liking the results of her hair cut outing with Dan. My mom didn’t speak to me for several days after I got my hair cut REALLY short one time….and I was 18! I was supposed to just be getting my below-the-shoulders long hair trimmed and came home with Carol Brady’s haircut (it was 1974) so mom was mainly just in shock. She got over it and I never got my hair cut that short again!

    It was pretty long but I have to say you ladies totally pull of pixie cuts! I’ve tried short hair but I usually look like I have a mushroom on my head. I’m also a messy bun girl 99% of the time while I’m at home. Sorry the break and having her home is coming to an end πŸ™ One a few more months and she’ll hopefully be home for Spring Break then home for Summer!

    And btw, I do like the balance in your blog topics

    My own mother has been forbidding me to cut my hair short for 40 years (this is going to make my therapist rich beyond imagination). I love it so much when you say it’s not your head! And it makes me so glad Aidan chose to be happy and not stick to what made her unhappy. Good luck!

      Oh Za, I can save you some money. It’s because it’s not about you, it’s not your hair. It’s THEIR hair and THEIR ideas of what you should look like. I paid some good money to find that one out. πŸ˜‰

    Hi Cathy! I am just beginning to get into hybrid scrapbooking, and I simply adore your work. πŸ™‚ I’m good at using templates, adding word art to photos and the very basic stuff in PSE, but there are tools I still don’t know how to use. I was wondering if you have a tutorial on how to draw a straight line and add a circle to a photo like you did in the First Kiss layout you did for Ali Edwards?

    • Cathy Zielske says

      January 9, 2015 at 1:26 pm

      Hey Jennifer! Thanks for the kind words. You know, I don’t have a tutorial on that. I did the stuff for Ali’s class mostly in PS but did my little sample video in PSE.

      I’m working on some ideas for a hybrid workshop that might incorporate more advanced stuff like that!

    I admire her. A new do, a new school, a fresh start!
    Best wishes to Aidan, as she starts this next chapter of her life.

    Ps. I think the new haircut, calls for an Aidan, hairstyles – through the years… scrapbook layout. LOL!!

    I had a short do in college but grew it out because in the 80s even the guys were wearing makeup and I got called “sir” too many times. She is gorgeous in, well, any doo.
