Trying Something New

Let me just start by saying that I am not crafty. At all. Even a little bit. But lately I've been trying out a few things just to see what happens. I made Ella a bow last weekend for the Cards game and it was actually wearable and pretty cute. Definitley not ready to sell them or anything, but was pretty proud of myself.
So today I decided I was going to make a hairbow hanger/holder for all of Ella's bows. We've been keeping them in this plastic rubbermaid container, but the bows are starting to get smooshed and mis-shapen. At first I looked around for one, but then saw one at a local children's boutique (that they were using to sell the bows they had) and decided it would be SUPER easy to make....even for me.
It seriously took all of ten minutes. All I needed was ribbon, scissors, shower curtain rings (yes!) and for a little extra cuteness I picked up some wooden flower pieces. Look and see.....




Aren't they super cute? I must say I am pretty proud of them :) The only thing is that she has so many bows, I made need to make some more becuase these are all filled up.....and we are always buying cute new bows :)

Anyway, hope you all like them! We are gearing up for a good weekend around here. Doing a lot of hanging at home and with family. Sounds perfect :)
