Funky Custom Bows

One of my favorite things to do is make custom bows for customers. I had a friend/customer contact me and ask if I could make her two large funky bows. Her daughter had two different birthday parties and wanted something different to take.

I started racking my brain! Her daughter is 6th grade so I was contacting my innner tween and decided I couldn't go wrong with Zebra print and peace signs!

Here are the two bows!



I wanted them to be a little more funkier than my normal bows so I added peace sign and star buttons. I also added jewels and a small bow! I thought they were so cute and my customer was happy with the outcome!

Here is the funk!

Princess Tutu Bow Holder

Hi everyone!!!! I want to start out my blog today by asking everyone to take a minute and say a prayer for a very good friend of mine, her kids, and their family. They were in a bad car accident and her children are in the hospital. I do not know details but I can not imagine. I know there can be such power behind prayer and I want sooo much for them to all be ok. Thank you everyone!

Every little girl needs a holder for her bows/head bands and a PRINCESS TUTU bow holder is the most perfect bow holder ever!!

This was my first Princess Tutu Bow Holder so I made it for Bella (my youngest daughter). I chose a pretty fun floral fabric. I picked ribbon, tulle, and a flower that matched and went to town on making my bow holder.

I love how it turned out but here are my tips on what i would do different the nest time I make it (My oldest daughter already requested one too)

*Iron the fabric before using it
*Use more tulle to make it fuller
*Use velcro for the head band holder part (I used magnets, or use stronger magnets and glue)

MIA and NEW Easter Puff Head Band!

I have been MIA (Missing In Action) for a while now. I have good legitimate reasons but will have to wait a bit to share them with you. Because of my reasons I just have not been on my game and have slacked a lot on my blog and business. I miss blogging and keeping up with all the blogs I love to read. I am slowly trying to come back and do my thing again!

To start out my week I would like to share a beautiful Easter Colored Puff Head Band I made. I absolutely love how it turned out!!! I will be making some of these in colors to match my girls dresses.




I can't wait to start posting every day again and reading all my lovely friend bloggers blogs!!!!!

Thank you to all my readers that have wondered and worried about me. Brooke

Today is a TUTU kind of day!

I missed everyone and I can't believe that I missed two days on my blog. It was a busy weekend and as much as I love my blog and all my followers it was a much needed weekend!

Saturday my husband and I spent some quality time with our older two kiddos. I took Lauren, my 8 year old, to see the Justin Bieber movie. I would totally reccomend the movie to anyone. It puts a whole new perspective on him and his talent. He is an incredible child and so unbelieveably talented. I will for sure be taking Lauren to the next concert in KC. My husband took Cooper, our 6 year old, and a friend to the World of Wheels Car Show. I think they all had fun. My youngest got to spend the day with GRANDMA!

Saturday was also my husbands birthday and I gave him a very great birthday present. I will have to tell you all about that in a later post!!! Think hard and see if you can guess what it was!

Sunday we just kind of had a lazy day and got everything ready for all our kids V-Day parties at school.

So that brings me to today...
I had a custom order for two tutus. I absolutely love how these turned out and wanted to share them with you!

Here is the two toned purple tutu with Zebra ribbon accents and bow!


Here is the two toned pink tutu with Zebra accents and bow!


Hope you all enjoyed the tutus and missed me as much as I missed you!!!!
