Bows for Back To School

Are you or your little girl heading back to school? Or just love shopping for new accessories? Here are just a few hairbow styles I have available! There are so many colors to choose from!

The new year starts in a little more than 24 hours from now. I doubt I'll get to post soon after today so let me be the first to say "HAPPY NEW YEAR!!'. I'm gearing up for Valentine's Day! I got some cute heart ribbons and I just couldn't wait to make some spikey bows!! I also fell in love with some "hugs and kisses" ribbon and made some clippies! Most are available in my Etsy shop as of right now. I've got some more I'll be listing soon too! Just need to take some pictures :)

Day Out With Thomas!

Thomas the Tank Engine came to our area last weekend so I got tickets to take the kids. I had taken Punky when she was 2, so now that Munky is 2, I thought he should get a chance to go too! When I had taken Punky, I had sewn a dress just for the occasion. Wow, I can't believe how much she has grown since then!

This year, since my sewing machine is put away to make room at the dinner table for Munky, I wanted to make a hair bow for the outing! Being too lazy to come up with a ribbon sculpture, I enlisted the help of my online friend Shannon from GHButterflies, she makes some awesome images! I asked her to make some bottle caps for a bow center as well as a bottle cap necklace for Munky! She did a fantastic job!!! I once thought about making my own bottlecaps, but for now, I think if I need some I'll just order from her, it was too easy!

I had intended on making a pigtail set for Punky, but a few days before I made the bows she said she didn't want to wear pigtails, just one ponytail. So I made a bow to wear on her ponytail. I have one bottle cap left over, trying to decide what to do with it now!

Anyway, here are just a few pictures of our "Day Out With Thomas".

For your summer vacation!

Going anywhere magical this summer? Thought this set would look so cute going to meet a certain mouse! Or are you like us and won't be going anywhere this summer? That's ok, it still would be an adorable set for a lucky little girl! The Spikey Bow can be mounted to either a ponytail elastic or a clip.

Spikey Bows

I've got a new bow I've loved making! I'm calling them a "Spikey Bow". Cool thing about them is that they could even get wet and not worry about loosing shape! Just air dry and rearrange as needed! I made a mini spikey bow for pigtails, but only finished one matching Punky's dress for her preschool graduation. I thought it looked cute as a single too! And just for fun, I included a picture of Punky at her Preschool Graduation Ceremony. How cute does she look in that hat??? :)

Easter!

For Easter this year, I made my niece a nylon interchangeable headband and a bow to match her dress. How adorable is she????



For Punky, I made a bow with a triple scoop icecream cone to match her dress from the "Ice Cream Social Line" from Gymboree. I normally don't splurge on their clothing like that. But this dress is made from jersy knit, so I knew she would wear it without complaining. She'll get a ton of use from it!!


For the heck of it, here is Punky and Munky in a rare moment of them sitting together.

I think I posted this bow before, I sold the first one I made and my sister wanted it for her oldest, my other adorable niece, so I made a new one!

Race Day Bow!!

Punky can really be a daddy's girl sometimes. I made her this bow to wear on "race days" so it can help her enjoy watching Nascar with her daddy. We used to be Rusty Wallace fans before he retired. I don't have a favorite driver anymore, so I just stuck with the same colors we are used to :)

A whole bunch of clippies and bows :)

At my daughters preschool Valentine's Day party I was fortunate enough to be able to make some clippies and bows for prizes for the games. It took several hours to complete them all, but it was so worth it to see the girls (and moms!) pick out their favorites :)
