Springtime Helmet

bike helmet decorated with a flower
OK, it is probably not truly chic but it makes me smile.

Here's my helmet on the shelf in my office after our ride in today. I was inspired by the toddler's helmet cover but the flower is a $5 corsage from H&M. It is placed on the left so the drivers of cars can see it. They were a lot friendlier today, many more smiles and waves. I may have to leave the flower on!

    That is a *really* cute idea! I will have to try that this spring.

    I may have to steal this idea :)

    I think I saw you at the intersection of Beacon and Washington/Kirkland at about 9 this morning -- either that or your helmet has a doppleganger! Either way, it's an awesome helmet idea, and I definitely want to try it.

    Martha,
    That would be me!
    I hope I smiled and waved.
    :)
