Hair Bow Organizer



I've been wanting to make a bow and hair clip holder for my daughters room.. Previously I placed everything into a planter but wasn't pleased with the look. Plus I never dug down in the planter to get to any other bows. I was wanting to make a holder that was ribbons and a picture frame..you can find several pinterest tutorials on it. Then the idea hit me to look in my art closet and see if I could find another way to use ribbon and make a holder without having a picture frame. Thumbtacks and ribbon. perfect! How to make the thumb tacks pretty....I had little wood circles. Okay so gluing the circles on the thumb tacks but now how to make it look pretty.

Well of course the answer to making wood circles pretty in a jiffy was to do some simple woodland animal drawings on them with pen. This led me to sketching and before I knew it my project was complete.

The most time sucking part of it was putting all the bows and clips up. You really notice how many bows there are when they are out of the planter.

  1. Super cute and love your woodland animals! They are adorable! But what I love most was seeing how your brain work to solved a problem and see your creativity shine through. I sometimes get caught up of not doing something just because I don't have the "right" stuff and need to wait when I should be looking at all the things I have to see if I can still complete the project.
