The "Old-Fashioned" Bow

Most little girls love to have pretty bows, barrettes and headbands in their hair. My girls are no exception! As you will see in the photo gallery, I will occasionally use beads but not too often for fear of hair breakage caused by the rubber bands used to secure the beads. However, I am trying to teach my girls that in more cases than not "less is more" - i.e. it is not necessary to light up your head like a Christmas tree, as one of my aunts likes to say. LOL. Beauty also exists in simplicity. That said, I love the simple beauty of the old fashioned ribbon. I found the perfect ribbon box at Michael's Arts & Crafts some time ago that is just large enough to accommodate our primary color schemes.
