Bowmaker!

A few weeks ago a friend asked a bunch of us to go in and buy hairbows in bulk. Because we bought over 500 all together we were able to get them pretty cheap. I was very excited about them because MacKenzie had outgrown her baby bows and we were in desperate need of some new ones. I only ordered about 14 of them, but once they came I realized I needed some other colors to go with some of her outfits that I didn't order. I had ordered two dark pink but no light pink...and MacKenzie's closet has every shade of pink! So I went to a little boutique in town and bought just one light pink bow for $6.00. That's when I started thinking to myself...I could so make these and for a lot cheaper than $6!

So tonight, I went to Hobby Lobby and bought all my supplies and some really cute ribbon. Once I started I couldn't stop! I made about 7 bows tonight! And I think I did a pretty good job...for an ameteur!

Here's the "professional" bows...

Here's my bows...
