Too Many Bows???





Am I wrong in assuming that a girl can never have too many bows. I have been making bows for my girls. Bows, bows, bows!!! I like to put them on headbands, and layer them, and even pretend they are pins and wear them on the strap of my bag. But,...when one has so many bows that one cannot find the one one wants, then one has a problem. Too many 'one's'? Never fear, I found ONE solution. These cute little frame-hook-thingy's were on clearance at Michaels. Shazzam,...I will hang the bows on them. (My life would be so much more simple if I didn't feel like everything had to be cute.) I could have tacked a piece of yarn to the wall months ago,but I digress,...it was worth the wait. Aren't they cute? I put a lock of my half pints hair in the rectangle frame, and if my quarter pint ever has enough hair for a cut, hers will go in the oval frame. I hung them on the wall in the girls closet. They will never even be seen. But I know they are there, and they make me smile.

You are so creative, I always enjoy my visits here. I do like everything "cute" as well, and I love colors. This is too pretty and to cute to be hidden away in a closet.;)

Ooooo I LOVED it when my daughter would wear bows but now at 9 1/2 (always have to add that 1/2) she feels she wouldn't be "cool" wearing a bow. It was a sad day when they all got sold. She will though still wear cute barrettes and scrunchies and ribbons...YAY!!

That is such a cute way to hang them!

There are NEVER too many bows if you are a girl! I love your idea. It is really cute.

Holy, additionally, I have to agree with everyone else -a girl can never have too many bows.
Please see my recent post on my blog, you have been tagged, perhaps for the first time.;)

Holls...I love the little framy hook thingamabobs! I also love the pink and brown bow! Alas...I have a five-going-on-fifteen-year-old, and I don't know if she is even willing to wear bows anymore...I've quit asking except on Sunday when clothing choices are Mom's domain!

Hi! I found your site from Shell in My Pocket. Your blog is so cute! I love bows too, but I've never made them. I use the same trick by clipping them all onto a hanging ribbon. I'd love to know how you make your bows!

I love the bows! My little girl would be in heaven if she had that many bows to choose from!
Care to give any info on how you make them? I'd love to make more for my girl.
