The Cutest Blog On the Block

I absolutely love this new background. Thank you thecutestblogontheblock.com!  My old one got moved and when I went in search of a new background, I found this one.  I think it fits perfectly. It's bright, colorful, and creative. :)

Tuxedo Bows

Everyone has a different look for the tuxedo bow. I'm working on perfecting mine...they are still ending up kinda crooked, but I'm hoping to figure it out soon.  For now...if you have any tips or ideas, please send them my way!

Also, I've only got about 2 more weeks before my finals, so these next couple of weeks are going to be hectic. Then, I'm taking a break from school for a bit. I need to.  Three kids aged 4 and under makes it kinda hard to find time to do much of anything!   I'm hoping that once school is over and things settle down into a routine, I can get to a couple of shops with some samples and see if they're interested in consigning or buying...I'll keep ya'll updated on that.

Bows Galore!

Pinwheel Bows.  Interchangable unless it has a knot center or bling.  The top layer can have whatever center you want and it doesn't affect the ability to clip onto something else. 

Each clip is done on a partially lined clip. To layer, simply slide the lower part of the clip into the center of the bottom clip.  I'll try to get pictures of this at some point, but it's hard since I don't have three hands. :)  I'll get some help from the hubby and get those posted up sometime within the next couple weeks.

In the bottom pictures, the lower bow is approximately 3.5 inches and the top bow is approximately 2.5 inches.  They layer together perfectly, as you can see!  They can be worn separately  or together, whichever you prefer.  Because of this, the possibilities are endless!!  Boutique bows will be added soon and will be interchangable with the pinwheel bows, as well.

 The bows below I'm going to call my double-tuxedo bows. 

Bows--Waiting on the ribbon

I am waiting for my ribbon and my headbands to get here. But I can't WAIT any more! I just ordered it all 3 days ago, but I want it NOW!  I can't wait to get creating and create the bows that have been ordered and then make extras for my munchkins to wear.  So exciting! Feels like Christmas!

Third Birthday Tutu!

Featuring a gorgeous orange and fuschia Whimsical(9in) tutu. Absolutely adorable and it's going to be so hard to part with it, but...it's for a client. Thank you!  Gorgeous and I can't wait to see pictures of the little one in her total outfit!

4th of July!

Fourth of July is JUST around the corner.  Here are my items for the up and coming holiday. More to come...limited supply! 

Flowers $6.
Mini Flowers $2.50

Every clip is fully lined. If you would like a partially lined clip, please let me know! No extra cost.

Busy!

I'm trying to get better at updating this, even if it's just for a few lines.  I've done tons of research and have decided that to begin my adventure into headbands(for babies, toddlers, and adults!) that I will be offering knit headbands instead of crochet, lace, elastic, or nylon.  I believe that these headbands will last longer, be just as cute as the others, leave absolutely NO marks on tender baby heads, and still come in a variety of colors.  Embellishments will be removable and ANY of my alligator clip hair accessories can be used on the headbands or wear without an embellishment.  Gerbera daisies and some 4th of July flower clips are also coming soon! Hopefully by the weekend.  Bear with me over the next week or so as I attempt to get my life back under control. My school classes started on the 10th and while they are online classes and do not require that I go to the campus regularly, I still do have three small children and a house to keep clean!  So, between my normal household responsibilities and children, I now have deadlines, homework, and other stuff to complete. I am trying my best to keep up with this blog, my facebook, and website, but let's face it...I can only do so much and if I don't have an order...creating new stuff is a tad bit lower on my list of "to-do" than it was last week!   That being said...I have numerous bows to 1. complete and 2. take pictures of. I'm hoping to get some time to do them later this week or, if necessary, this weekend. 

Enjoy your week and check back for pictures. I'll get, at the very least, one picture up before Saturday.
