Tuxedo Bows

I'm just loving these Tuxedo bows. Such a simple classic bow that looks adorable on girls of all ages. I've even been wearing them myself.

New Double Ruffle Toggle Headband Instructions

Aren't these the cutest things? These are one of our favorite new hair accessories... so easy to make... so easy to use... and SUPER CUTE!
Here's Jaden modeling the Double Ruffle Headband along with a large Double Ruffle Bow at a recent birthday party. She bounced and slid for hours and nothing budged.

My Secret Santa...

Who thought this Secret Santa thing up??? I don't know... but I sure am thankful. This was my first time to participate in a Secret Santa, and I received the most spectacular gift... A set of handmade mother/daughter bracelets for me and Jaden.

Thank you to whomever sent me such a wonderful surprise!

Any OU Fans out there?

I am loving all this collegiate ribbon. I am personally a UT fan, but I made this bow for a friend of mine and thought I'd share. I'll be making UT bows next... and I might go ahead and make an Aggie bow, just in case there might be a fan or 2 out there.

What's in a name?

A whole lot of thought... that's what's in a name. When I started making bows, Sew Cute Bags just didn't fit anymore. I searched and searched for a good name. I like a fun name... not too serious. Something that is really "me"... you know?
I was on the phone with my friend Danette... and she tells me about a lady who's daughter is ALWAYS wearing bows... or "No Bow... No Go" as her husband called it. "Whaaaaatttt?" I say... What did you call her? So she explains that No Bow... No Go is like American Express for hairbows... you don't leave home without it. It wasn't long before I was asking permission to use this fun and very fitting name.
Obviously she said yes, however, she constantly reminds me that I owe my life to her. I offered my first born, but she knows him too well and wasn't up for the challenge.
Of course, her husband says he made it up, but I've since heard that this has been a "Suthin Thang" for quite some time. This native Californian certainly had never heard of it... so I'll give him all the credit... THANKS LELTON!
Oh, and don't tell the locals I'm from California... they frown on that here in Texas ;oD
I'm off to go drink my sweat tea under an umbrella with my best beau. Y'all come back now... ya hear?
