These are made on a french clip (the kind with the squeeze/spring mechanism), and are a little painful to make. But, they're not as hard as it looks! I can use all kinds of ribbon, so these will be a lot of fun! I'm imagining printed ribbons, different widths, even maybe adding korkers and marabou! They can be made in various sizes, depending on the size of the clip.The problem I have now is figuring out a name for these! The directions call them "loopy bows", but I already have another bow that I call the "loopy bow." The old one isn't in the catalog, by some quirk, so I could rename it. Here's what the first "loopy bow" looks like:
So, I ask for your opinion - what should I call these bows? Only one can have the "loopy bow" name - the old or the new?? I could give them a girl's name, but I thought I'd ask your opinion (I'm not very good at coming up with names for things).

Oooh love it! Diana's hair looks so cute like that!
I think the "old" bow is better named the loopy bow, and I love how you name them girls' names! I think it's so cute. So I think you need to come up with another girl name for your new bow!
:)
I think that new one looks like it belongs on a princess and it crowns like a tiara/tierra (or however you spell that word) so that would be my suggestion! (Course the girly names are sweet too...beautiful and yet difficult to shape/mold...do you have a Diana namesake bow?) : ) It was great being with you guys again!
love, melisa
Natalie- thanks for the input! I like the girls' names too - and I will never run out of them!! =)
That's a great idea, Melisa! I hadn't thought of it looking like a tiara. No, I don't have a Diana bow yet. I guess this one might fit her personality! LOL!! =)
Hi DeAnn: I am not sure who Melissa is but I am in total agreement with here on this bow. It is just beautiful. I almost - remember I said almost - wish I had a little girl to do bows on again. Martha had bows as I said before , but nothing as beautiful as these. You are doing a great job. Pray that your partys are doing well. Luv ya much A.K.
I like also like how you name your bows girls names. :)
