Bows For Your Bellas to the rescue!

October 23, 2014
When I was pregnant, I went in for my thirty week sonogram and was astounded when the tech told me,  "your baby has a ton of hair." You could actually see it on the sonogram!  They were right and it has been unruly ever since. She literally had a mowhawk for the first 6 months of her life. No matter what I did, it would pop back into that rebellious Mowhawk stance. We worked around it with head bands. She would rip them off.  The bows, bobby pins and odd assorted clips we bought would only hold back a tiny portion of her mane. 

Enter Bows For Your Bella. Combined with a vast array of patterns, movie or holiday themes, and the ability to custom order, you can find the perfect bows for any occasion.  I personally love them because they are made with a huge alligator clip that stays put for my little ones wild hair.  They only use the best quality grosgrain and silk ribbon.  The ribbon used is very wide and substantial so it makes a statement rather than getting lost in the mop.  Each one is hand made and can be customized. 

We tried the Princess bow, made with pink and purple ribbon and topped with a gorgeous silhouette of a little girl. We received so many compliments. The headband we got is also very thick and comfortable. My dear daughter actually left it on which NEVER happens. She loved the flower!  Of course, her favorite is the Frozen bow, which she will not take off!  

 Bows For Your Bellas was founded by Kerry Hotine who loved making them for her three daughters. After numerous requests from friends and family, her hobby has quickly grown into a labor of love, allowing her to work alongside her girls to help create designs. She sells them in four specialty shops on the Island, on Etsy and at www.bowsforyourbellas.com.  She welcomes special requests! 

As a special giveaway we are raffling off the gorgeous Princess bow, my personal favorite and an adorable headband. Please like Bows For Your Bellas on Facebook and tell them Macaroni Kid Sent you to be entered!!!  Winner will be drawn in two weeks.
