Curly Qs

My most recent bow making addiction is making curly q bows.  Yes, I know they're called korker bows, but for some reason that name really just rubs me the wrong way...and I have major trouble using it.  So, I will refer to them as curly qs.  Anyway, I've been making these lately and have posted pictures of those remaining after the craft fair.

I wanted to start making bows to prepare for having a little girl.  However, after buying all the ribbon that exists within three stores (ok, so that's a slight exaggeration), I've decided to start selling the extras.  These five bows are in my etsy.com shop:  http://www.etsy.com/shop/CreativelyFrugal.  I'll be adding my little loopies and mini clippies before long.

Living in Lexington, I felt a UK bow was a necessity.


Merry Christmas! bow


Bright pink & black polka dot


Happy Birthday! bow--This one is my favorite.  I was so excited when I found the cupcake patterned ribbon!
I've been collecting the little crocheted headbands and caps each time I go to Hobby Lobby ($.99 and $2.99 each).  I can't wait to put these on our little lady's cute little head! 

Lingering thought of the day:  We're having chicken & dumplings for supper tonight, and I cannot wait.  It's so cold and windy out that today's just crying out for yummy comfort food.

  1. I love the headbands/beanies from Hobby Lobby. I ship them often when I make a sale! In fact, I'm getting ready to ship a black one tomorrow with one of my wacky zebra clips!
