Pretty bows have a way of multiplying when you have a little girl.
Little girls look so precious decked out in hair bows. They can acquire quite a collection of them over time, something to go with every possible outfit. Instead of stuffing all those pretty bows and barrettes in a jumbled drawer that is difficult to dig through every time a little girl needs something pretty for her hair, display them in a fun and organized way that makes access and choice easy .
Braided Yarn Hair
Braid long strands of yarn to look like a human braid in the color of the little girl's hair. Hang it from a bathroom or bedroom wall or door with a strong stick on a hook or a screw-in hook. Decorate the long braid with all the bows and hair gear. They will be simple to find hanging in plain view, without having to hunt through piles to find the one she wants.
Ribbon Strands
Cut a long piece of fabric ribbon one-half to one inch wide and at least three feet long. Use the same technique as the yarn hair for hanging. Attach all the bows and clips to the hanging ribbon. They are very easy to attach and detach from the ribbon. Tie a large knot on the bottom of the hanging ribbon to keep pieces from sliding off.
To make a more secure version that does not move around, use a piece of wood or cardboard and place different widths and colors of ribbon next to each other vertically across the board. Fasten each piece of ribbon at the back of the board with a stapler, small nails, or craft glue at the top and bottom of each piece of ribbon. The bows and barrettes will clip easily on the rows of ribbons.
Doll
Use a doll or doll's head to display the bows. Make sure the doll is a large doll with enough hair to fasten the bows and clips to. Set it on a bathroom counter or dresser for your little girl to reach easily. She will have fun making her doll's hair pretty with all her bows.
Bulletin Board
Buy or make a bulletin board or wood board. Paint or cover it with fabric to give it more warmth and character. Attach rows of simple screw-type, open-end cup hooks to the board with the open part of the hook facing up towards the top of the board. Hang it in a bedroom or bathroom. Anyone can easily hook each bow over and a cup hook and remove it to use.
