Sometimes we wake up with a bad hair day. What about it? I think I just heard someone say they'd like to see more of that precious head of hair.
Well, I happen to like the look of bows, and Little One just so happens to need them to tame her mane. We've recently moved up a size and those jokers are expensive. At $6 a pop, I'd go broke.
Oh, wow she's cute. I could smooch her all day long.
And so, I recall a tutorial that Darby (we all know Darby, right?) wrote a few years ago, before I had a little girl to make bows for. Little One and I hit up Hobby Lobby to pick up the bow makin' supplies. I got 25 alligator clips and 5 yards of ribbon for all of 7 bucks. I followed Darby's instructions to a tee, except for making my loops a little smaller (I used about 2/3 yard)to fit LO's head and adding a knot on the center wrap around part. I also used the 1.5" ribbon for the center (because silly me forgot to purchase the narrow coordinating ribbon) and found it worked out alright. And after about an hour, I'd say that Little One is good to go on the bow front for a while. Man, I love a good craft project.

Katie! I love your blog! Your little girl is so precious - she looks just like you! Glad to see you're doing well!
Wow - great job! I am sure I will be needing this tutorial soon!
To answer your question earlier... we couldn't be more blessed. It's amazing. MT is absolutely adorable and getting so big. Kind of hard to believe how fast they grow!
Katie, Your bows are precious... but not anywhere near as precious as sweet MT! I love her crazy hair... Morgan had some crazy hair when she was that age too and I loved it!!!
I love crazy hair and I love bows.
Those are awesome-- not to mention, what a fabulous thing to keep on hand for shower gifts!
Precious bows! I need to learn to make some for Miss Paisley!
She is stinking cute! I use the same tutorial and it is great! Bows are so expensive, it is the best way to do it.
