My goals for my crafts:

To do 5-10 bow a week for 10 weeks! After i've reached my 10 week mark I will post my new goal above this one!

Another goal I have is to do a craft with the kids atleast once a day. This one is not a time framed goal, just a general one.

I currently have 2 other girls besides my daughter that I will be making a few bows for. My 6 year old sister inlaw, and my cousin's baby that has lost some hair from chemo, to put on hats!

YAY! I finally made 7 bows today! I have one picture but i'll explain which i made doubles of because i already packed a present and forgot to take pics first! lol

The polka dot and zebra one I made 2 of. (Aubrie already has one of these. And then I also made a little black on that is a 1.5'' bow double layered.

Terrible picture, I know. But this is the ribbon I have spent the entire night preparing for bows. Measuring, Cutting, Burning the ends, then Fray Check.

Oh, and I made a bright pink tutu to pair with a pink marabou and white crochet hat! 

So I think I will have to call Friday night my craft night! :)

Thank you! I gave up on cutting all of the different ribbons or i would have been up all night lol. So i tried to get atleast one for every "look"

I have an amazing husband and just thought id share. He made this for me last night at 2am for my ribbons!

It was a quick project, but he's going to sand it (with the spools off of it) and paint it. Its got 51 spools on it! And its so compact! I love it!
