Bow Bandit is BAAAACCK!!!

I'm back bow beauties!
 It's amazing how good it felt to make and piece together some beautiful bows. This morning I woke up super early... only to realize that I was up earlier than I thought due to the time change...I didn't realize until I started spreading things out on the floor, how much I had invested into this bow blog. To not restart my goal would be a waste of money. And according to Mister, aka "the husband". I can not do that! I have to give him a nickname- that seems to be a blogging rule of thumb to give all your personal family and friends nicknames. So from this day forward Mister is THE HUSBAND... and THE MUNCHKIN... is still the munchkin! And you... my wonderful following of 14... You are my BOW BEAUTIES! It's OK to not meet your goals but it's not OK to not try again. So as I would say in my acting class... take 2!

To start things off on a smooth and consistent note, some of the pieces were purchased separately, matched and pieced together BY ME! I'm calling this piece... Bow Bandit. Seems appropriate because I am not referring to myself as the Bow Bandit. I am going to have to steal away time from family and work to accomplish this goal!


Welcome back BOW BEAUTY!

A Rose is still a Rose...

A Rose is still a Rose... even when it's made of felt. I attached this cute red felt rose to a 1/4 red band. Took a picture of it on the munchkin to get a better idea what it looked like. I know what you're saying... "She kept the band on long enough to take picture?" No!!! I took it while she slept.

"I'm all korked up!" Pt. 2

Celebrating the completion of my first month of Make Something 365!!!! Wow! One month down... 11 more to go. Now on to today's creation.





"I'm all korked up!" Part 2... Today I created a korker bow, using zebra print, red and plain white 3/8" ribbon. I attached the korker bow to a black headband. I think this cute for tween girls who may have out grown the Korker bows. Something about a headband that makes them feel a lil older but still young and cute.

Flower Power



I was inspired to create my Flower Power interchangeable headband set after I found Girlie Things Bows free tutorial. I used a 1 1/2" crochet headband, Pink & Purple 3/8" grosgrain ribbon, a Cupcake button, and a Petal Poise button. I made the flower bow in two different sizes the smaller is about 2 inches wide and the larger is 3 inches. I added a piece of grosgrain ribbon around the headband with enough space so that clips & bobby pins can attach to the loop.
