BOWS!!

I started last week making hair bows for my girls. This is something I have not wanted to do for a long time, I don't know if I was afraid of the time or money commitment or what but now that I have started it is addicting, I wish I was doing it right now! My friends Zoe and Arin pretty much showed me how to make all of these bows, they are the creative ones! Yesterday I went to The Ribbon Retreat and got new ribbon. This store is online and people from everywhere buy ribbon, but it is about 20 minutes away from my house so I went in and it is amazing. I ended up getting a convenience pack with a bunch of basic colors, and a couple of grab bags that are stuffed with pieces of ribbon. Anyway, I have plenty of ribbon to last me for a while. I made doubles of some, but I made all these bows in about 4 hours. Not too much time and not too much money either!

Those are super cute! If you get an itch to sell them, you can set up an etsy shop (www.etsy.com) I bought some of the headband bows I used for Hailey's 6 month pictures from one of the venders on there! =)

I love them! One of these days I need to get all creative and girly, so Ivy doesn't have issues growing up!
