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!

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