| I like wearing a bow in my new hairdo, but no way was I gunna pay loads when I had a bag of ribbon at home, plus I don't need two that are the same. I experimented with sewing them, but I found it much easier fold the ribbon over a cardboard template and tie the middle with string. These are the two I've made so far.. Silver Ribbon Bow  Black and white lace bow (ignore the bedhead  )   The black one is kinda big but I love it. (P.S. I did also buy those £2.50 bows.  THEY WERE CUTE!) | |

| Bobby pins. Just slid em under the thread before I wrapped something round the middle to hide it. | |

| I've seen some outrageously priced bows and hair clips online lately---like 9 pound for them? (That would be about 18.00 Canadian). I don't think so! and they're simple like the ones you made (maybe a little charm in the middle, but heck--I can make that!).
I love them....I think they look soooo cute with your curls! | |

| in the first pic of the lace bow the white lace looks cream, in my opinion cream and black would look gorgeous, i think i may prefer it to the white and black. I say you make a cream and black one too lol! But I do think they are great and very pretty, I love your hair aswell btw. |

| oo that would be nice, i saw some of those big metal hair clips in topshop in those colours, i think it would look kinda icecreamy, maybe use brown instead of black and you would have like a neopolitan icecream bow lol |
