Briar Patch Marketplace Here I Come!







Well I know I have been a random at best poster on the blog these days and anyone who used to follow, may just by chance read this or see that I FINALLY posted something new.  Believe it or not, I have actually been doing a couple hair bow related things.  First off for the new year, I received lots of new ribbons!!  Beautiful, decadent and super fun.  I also purchased a couple more tools to help organize my space.  They are fabulous ribbon organizers that allow me to see what I have, and cut as I go- nice.  Secondly, I have made some time to start creating- my favorite!- again.  In my first creation, I started by fusing two ribbons to create a new unique ribbon.  I used a new tool- technically a mini iron for small seams- to fuse a double ruffle ribbon to a gorgeous woven polka dot ribbon.  The results are gorgeous!  My next new creation are items for "big" girls.  I found these super fun colored bobby pins and a great seller on Etsy (Buttons and Badges)  who makes these fun covered buttons.  With a little e6000, the two became one- and the results are some super mod hair pretties.  I can't wait to bust them out with a sundress this spring.  My third creation is bitty baby bling.  I used solid grosgrain ribbon, created a barbell style bow- which I haven't done before- startched and baked them to keep their shape- then applied a coordinating sparkle to the center.  They are super tiny perfect for the newbie in your life!  Lastly, with all my new creations, I decided I had better stop spending on new supplies and start selling.  I signed up for a two day show this spring.  It is through the Briar Patch Marketplace.  Here's the deets:
