Felt Flower Bow Clip Holder

Finally! I have added the Felt Flower Bow Holder! This has been in the works for waaaaay to long! This bow holder is stuffed with fluff and and securely attached to coordinating ribbons to give you 3 feet of bow keeping room!
The best thing is you can choose your colors! We are all lovin' the new bow holder here and hope you do too!

There will be new flt bow holders added as soon as I can get some pictures. In the mean time, if you see a felt design that you'd love to have as a bow holder, send me an email and I will see what I can do!



Up next:
new Christmas and holiday bows and clips will be slowly added, so be sure to check back.
Also with the impending holiday rush upon us remember that Christmas orders will only be taken until the first couple days og December. I will post the cut off date shortly!

One more for Halloween

Ooops...I just added one more Halloween felt clip. It's a cute little candy corn, and although it looks good enough to eat, its supposed to be worn as a hair clippy.
This is also available on an alligator clip for the big girls!


Also very soon will be the most adorable hair bow holders ever!! Think felt, flowers and butterflies. Need I say more??

I am also working on getting some sequin designs in stock. I am hoping to have some really spiffy sequin dragonflies as well as a couple new ones for the holidays. I am hoping to have those up in earlier October, as I think they will make perfect stocking stuffers!

So that's about it. More bows and clips here, as well as a few projects in the works for new headbands...but I am still working out the kinks on that one.

I can not brain today.

I think this picture totally sums up how I feel today.

Halloween Treats are Here!

Yay! I actually managed to keep a deadline. I said these would be up early this week and they are (I am just as shocked as you)!
I have just added the super adorable new Felt Fuzzies for Fall and some super sweet festive bows for Halloween!
Now bows were my original crafting love, but I have to admit that lately it's the Felt clips that keep me constantly crafting.
Once again, I have discontinued the Big Girl Snappies. Now you can choose either the Little Girl snappies 1 1/4 inch or the Big Girl alligator clips (which will last longer anyway).

Oh yeah, check out the adorableness!

Back to School and Looking Cool!

Yeah, cheesy I know. I am all about the rhymes...you know- "easy peasy lemon squeezy" and the ever popular around here "I'm the boss, applesauce".
Anyway, I finally managed to get some new designs up for the fall. Yay me!
As you can see, I am really working with adding alot more felt designs on alligator clips. They seem to be a big hit!
The Big Girl Girlie Clip

The Big Girl Monogram Clip

The Big Girl Felt Cupcake (yummy)


Also some new bows with apples for fall and some super trendy chocolate brown with pink or blue bows and tuxedo clips. You can check out all the new items under the New Arrivals link!



As always, I am constantly working on improving the website. I am updating some of the descriptions and have added pictures on the clips and sizes link of the two bow styles now available on most bows.



I will have a few more Halloween designs up by next week (no, really, I will). This includes a black cat and a new Halloween striped ribbon! Be sure to check back!

Also note I am now featuring a new clip each month at a discount. This month, you can enjoy any Felt Apple Clip at $5! You. are. welcome!

We're back!

The Bowtique is once again open and ready for orders! We enjoyed a nice vacation and were lucky enough to miss Hurricane Fay while we were gone.
We were also lucky enough not to have any major damage.

I will be adding new designs a within the next few days. So keep your eyes open. Halloween designs are not too far behind either! I am trying to get everything organized for the soon-to-be holiday rush. (ack! I can not even believe I am thinking that already).

Also new is the "Clip of the Month". Each month, we will feature a clip that will be offered at a special price. Some months all the proceeds will go towards certain charities and causes. We will post all of the info on the "Clip of the Month" page.

Here's a sneak peak at one of my favorite new designs. A Monogram Felt Clip for the big girls mounted to an alligator clip.

New Splash Page!

Yay! I finally got some help with a new design for the splash page. I wanted something a little more professional looking (and not so much like the html hack job I attempted). So I hired the help of Ready Set Shoppe!
I absolutely love the new look! It'll be much easier to maintain and all important messages will continue to post at the top of the page, as well as the blog.


It certainly pays to leave it to the professionals!

The Bowtique is on Vacation!

Well...almost. I still have about a week of pending orders to complete before I am outta here for awhile with the whole fam damily!
All pending orders will be shipped by August 13th. I hope to re-open about August 25th. This date may vary a couple days.

Although I won't be able to take any orders during this time, I will be checking my emails when I can. It may take me a couple days to reply to emails, but rest assured, I will find an internet somewhere while away.

Happy Rest of Summer All!
(we'll see you just before school with some new Fall and Halloween bows and clips).

We will be closed in August

This is just a reminder to all that we will be closed August 2nd- August 24th.
And by vacation, I mean a real vacation where I will not have any bow supplies (as promised to my family). I will also have very limited internet access (not sure if this is good or bad yet). So emails will take a few days to answer and I will not be able to fill any requests until our return around August 24th or so.

I am hoping to return with a handful of new designs for fall and some new Felt designs as well (the Felt Fuzzies seem to be taking most of my time lately).

For those who like to be "in the know". Here's a preview of one new ribbon. Also coming will finally be a Felt Monogram for big girls and a Felt cupcake (because the 10 designs I already have, just aren't enough)!

Few new additions

Slowly but surely. Well, okay just slowly. I have had many requests for felt designs on alligator clips, so I am slowly adding those to the Felt Fluffy area. I have just added the adorable hippo and butterfly. Now they are both available on alligator clips. This is exciting for those with a little more hair to tame!
Up next will be a cupcake and a monogram! Yay!




Also just a reminder that I will be taking a real vacation with the whole fam damily in August. So, I will be closing about August 2 or 3rd for 2-3 weeks. This will allow me to finish up all pending orders and hopefully add the ner stuff for fall.
Can you believe that I am already working on Halloween designs?! Ack!

Vote for me and I will Cut Taxes!

Well, not really, but it sounded good. I have entered the 2008 Designer Chick Contest at Girl Indie. There are some super cool opportunities and I thought, "what the heck". This is my very first contest, so I am just hoping for a few votes to avoid complete and utter humiliation.
Of course, you will be able to recognize our super adorable entry (psst, it's #6 - the meticuously handcrafted Felt Butterfly).
Designer Contest Vote HERE!

Thanks all! I appreciate the support and if you see something else cuter, I get dibs on your vote!
