Thanks to some friends who share the joy of having a little girl and being crafty...I learned to make hair bows for my daughter! I've enjoyed doing so and went a little crazy with making too many...I continued to buy ribbon...had a lot left over...and decided to make and sell them! What better way to turn a hobby into a little spending money?!
I'm typically NOT a creative person, but I've enjoyed mixing colors, etc. to make cute hair bows :) My husband and daughter give their opinions when I'm putting together new bows too. It has become a fun thing to do in the evenings when we're hanging out as a family :)
I charge about 1/3 to 1/2 of what I've paid and seen them sell for in specialty shops and department stores. My prices are pretty simple. $3 for single ribbon bows, $5 for two matching single ribbon bows for pig tails, $5 for double ribbon or stacked bows and $8 for larger specialty bows. Prices may change some as I add new things to my inventory. Most bows are made from gross grain ribbon, however I have satin and sheer ribbon as well. I have more than what is seen here, so let me know if you have an outfit to match and we'll make a bow for it!
Take a look and let me know if you'd like to take any home!
Thanks for your support :) God Bless!

great idea lyndsay! these bows are great!!
i have a question, can you make the bows with wider ribbon? when i put these kind of bows in maggie's hair they seem to get lost. i think they are just too small so i was wondering how wider ribbon would do??
Christi! I just saw this post - from...9 months ago! Yes, I can do larger ribbon and I am now doing them on the clips that snap shut in addition to the alligator clips. I've gotten several requests for that type of clip! Let me know if you need anything. I've got Halloween and Christmas ribbon if you want any Holiday Bows!
