Ribbons and Bows
















Here are some fun pictures from this week. I decided to try to make some bows for Cadence since they are so expensive to buy and some outfits make her look like a boy (hence the need for bows). I bought a bunch of ribbon (see picture) for super inexpensive - $.50 and $.97 a SPOOL. Cheap enough for me to learn on and not feel bad if I made a mistake. They are not as pretty as the "real ones" - not yet. The pretty all pink one is a "real one" we got as a gift. The heart band was a gift from my aunt and I added the bow and the brown/white is all me. The ribbon has a hard time staying separated - any ideas? I was thinking AquaNet --- hahaha???? There is something else I am going to make Cadence but I cannot blog about it because I am making one for a friend and I want it to be a surprise - might even make one for a niece. HMMMM. So many fun things to do with crafts. A side note on bows - I said I wasn't a bow person, and I am not, not on adult dresses or on other things. But come on - when your daughter is SO cute with a big bunch of ribbon on her head who can resist. :) And notice in the picture with the orange outfit - she has spit up on her onesie, we are working with her on being feminine. :) And you cannot see but she has brown camo pants on - that is one of the outfits that we need a bow for so we don't get "wow, what a cute little boy".

I don't see any brown camo pants or any spitup. My granddaughter wouldn't do anything so unfeminine! Just don't tell anyone who bought her the brown camo pants...I think the bows are cute-you are doing a great job on them, Tif. The hair is looking more blonde!

I forgot to ask-what is that red item in Cadence's mouth? Not enough room in her hands to hold it all?

Tiffany said...

the red item is actually a toy ring in her hand but she was yelling - for fun - and shaking it really fast. that would explain why you cannot tell what is it. i would like the record to show - you bought her those pants Mom. in your defense you didn't know if she was a she or a he at the time :)

Oh my gosh that bow is ADORABLE! I love a huge bow on a baby girl's head. So cute.

Those are adorable...when are you going to start taking orders?

Tiffany said...

i will start taking orders when i can figure out how to make them prettier on the inside also - i need to get a hot glue gun. and i need to figure out how to make the bows stay apart and not collapse back together. any ideas?
