It's not always easy to keep the boys supplied with handmade goodies. Not that they mind, of course. Technology and toys make them just as happy. However, there are times when you just want to supplement the "cool" stuff with the "made with love" stuff.
One of my nephews turns six very soon. He does appreciate Aunt Melissa's homemade presents just as much as the "cool" stuff. Yesterday, I remembered Jennifer and Carla's
Bosco Bow Tie. A quick pass through the scraps, an hour of time and three bow ties later, I'm satisfied.
I think he will be too. I've used Heather Bailey's Nicey Jane and
Jenean Morrison's Power Pop for these cute but not too cute bow ties. I think a little Kaffe would be awesome too. Or maybe Parson Gray's Curious Nature.
Oh dear, I love these. All of them are cute but that middle one is my fave!
ReplyDeleteLove how they came out! I want to make a regular tie for my son out of Curious Nature~ I have the tutorial, but haven't ventured there yet! :)
