Hair Bow Display Ideas

Little girls love hair bows and barrettes,


Little girls love hair bows and barrettes. The hard part about having hair bows and barrettes is keeping them neat and organized. Hair bow storage doesn't have to be a hassle, whether at a retail store or at home, you can keep hair bows neat and tidy while on display.


Retail Displays


A number of websites sell plastic display cards for hair barrettes and bows. There are two general styles of plastic display card, one that folds around the barrette or bow clip and seals at the top, and one that has slits in it for the barrette or bow to clip onto. Both variations have a hole at the top of the card that allows the bows to be fixed on a standard retail display rack or peg/slat board display.


At Home Displays


Many different crafters have hair bow displays and holders available online. The basic design of the hair bow display includes a wooden plaque with a wall hanger attached at the top and several ribbons attached at the bottom. The hair bows attach to the ribbons and are neatly displayed on the child's bedroom or bathroom wall. Some of the online shops that make these hair bow displays offer custom wording or personalization services so that a parent or grandparent can have their child's name painted on the plaque.


Do-It-Yourself Displays


To create a custom hair bow display at home, visit a local craft store for a few supplies. You will need two different thicknesses of ribbon, fabric glue, small tack nails, paint and a wooden wall plaque. Start by gluing the thinner ribbon down the middle of the thicker ribbon. Usually two or three lengths of ribbon will handle a girl's hair bows, but adjust the length and amount depending on your child. Next, paint the plaque in whatever color or design you want. Finally, use the tack nails to attach the ribbon to the back of the wall plaque. For added flair, you can glue wooden or plastic trinkets to the bottoms of the ribbon. This will also help the ribbon lie flat against the wall by weighing it down.
