Make Your Own HaIrBoWs!!

Does your girly-girl love to accessorize??...these step by step instructions will save you a ton'0'money and appeal to your creative side :) With easy interchangeable bows it'll save a ton of storage space. Make an inexpensive and adorable bow holder for a great custom gift!

The site is: http://www.girlythingsbows.com/pinwheel_bow.htmlYou can buy lengths of ribbon (for next to nothing!) in the fabric department at Wal-Mart or other craft/fabric stores. Alligator and other clips are available in bulk at little expense at beauty supply stores.

Below is a picture of the bows and bow holders I made the girls for Christmas. I used the pattern for "pinwheel bows" (instead of using craft wire, I used a needle and thread!). I caught the little [painted] wooden lady bugs on 50% sale at Hobby Lobby, I believe I paid 59 cents for the two of them! I just painted their names with puff paint and hot glued a length of ribbon and also a loop of thin ribbon to hang it from.
