As if I need one more hobby

THIS POST MAY CONTAIN AFFILIATE LINKS. I MAY EARN FROM QUALIFYING PURCHASES.
I keep seeing all of these cute bows everywhere. And tons of people make them.

So, I start thinking, if other people can make them, then why can’t I? Sure, I already do blog designs, and have a full time job, but what’s one more thing?

I’m not incredibly good at it, but I would say I’m learning. There is no glue showing, so that’s a start, right?

This is the first one I made for #1 for the Fourth. It is red, white and blue and matches her dress. (Please ignore her lack of pose, she’s getting quite stubborn lately…what am I saying, she’s been stubborn!)

And, the second one I made.

And a couple more I made after my wonderful step-dad sent me a bow maker.

Those little ones sure did look cute on #1’s pigtails today.

So, since I’m a changed momma, I’m sure you’ll be seeing a lot more of these in pictures lately!

When I have time, of course!

  1. I was suppose to be creative this year too.

    Can I blame it on my broken sewing machine? Maybe because I can't find my glue gun?

    Your bows look great.

  2. Super cute! I want a bow! You need to send Joe this link, he was a little concerned it wasn't going to work as good as you hoped.

  3. Bow making is insanely easy! Good job! My "business" of bows went up in smoke. Too much competition on ebay! (I don't recommend that, btw!)

  4. What kind of child wants bows in their hair?! Oh. Girls. I forget these things while living in the House That Testosterone Built…

  5. way to go mama!

    so far my new found bow hobby has only equaled like two real bows. and that was in march.

    clearly i have some catching up to do!

  6. okay what is a bow maker? You mean I could have saved the hundreds, no thousands I have spent on millions of hairbows!

  7. They look beautiful in her gorgeous hair. Great job! 🙂

  8. Very cute!! I didn't know there was such a thing as a bow maker…what is it?

  9. Mrs. Realife says:

    Freaking precious! My mom made all my bows as a little girl and my hair was too fine to keep them in 🙁

  10. Sparkette says:

    Hey those look great!! Love them, I haven't figured out how to do those yet! 🙂

  11. Part of me is really, really glad that we had a boy. Otherwise I'd be spending way too much time and money making cute things for a little girl to wear. 🙂

  12. Super cute! And it's super addicting…you'll see 🙂

  13. So funny. I bought a bunch of barrett blanks to do the same thing b/c my daughter has to where a uniform to school next year. We just got them and the ribbon in the mail. Now i need to dig out the hot glue gun!

  14. So adorable. Love the first one! I might even wear one. Is that weird?

  15. I've never heard of a bow maker before! Are you going to start taking orders soon? Hehe!

  16. Cute bows!! I made a few myself after getting tired of paying $5 for one bow and watching bow making tutorials. It's fun. 🙂
