It's a party!

By now, most of you should have received an invitation to my up-coming bow party! It's coming up fast - next Tuesday (the 25th) at 7:00. I'm excited about offering quite a few Christmas bows - and of course all my new styles will be making their debut! This is the perfect time to special order bows for the holidays too - so bring along those special outfits!

This party will be a lot of fun - especially for one lucky person who will walk away with the hostess benefits! Since I don't really need them =) - we'll be doing a drawing for them. Multiple entries can be earned by RSVP'ing (to come), bringing a friend, first to arrive, and more. I've also got a couple other things up my sleeves that should be fun...

New styles!! =)

I was thinking about ways to re-design the butterfly bows, since I don't really like them anymore. So, today I took some of them and ripped them apart, then rebuilt them. I made some of them into double pinwheels, then got adventurous! I had fun with these! First I put a mini korker on top of them: I'm really liking these! I think they're great - they combine two of my absolute favorites - pinwheels and korkers.

Then I ran out of color scheme ideas with the korkers, so I turned to my wider ribbon:

These are made with the pinwheel base, and a basic medium bow on top. I used a wider ribbon than usual for the rosette - I really like the effect!
Of course, the next thing to do is give these little beauties names. And, since I'm still working through my neices names, these are called - the "Laisa Bow" (top) and "Lily Bow" (bottom). Perfect, since they are sisters and the bows are kind of related in style! =)
