Ellie's bow board

I realized that before I give you the fill tour, I needed to fill you in on one more little project. . .Ellison’s bow board.  This thing gets used every day because yes, she rarely leaves the house without a bow. :)  I made this board using things I already had so it was “technically” free! 

I used an old bulletin board that I wasn’t using any more.  I hot glued a piece of fleece over the cork, so the board was even with the frame.  Does that make sense?  Then I stretched pink fabric over the board and hot glued it tightly to the back.  The ribbons were all from my baby sprinkle and were on gifts.  I measured and glued them evenly on the back of the board.  The little rolled flowers were used from leftover sheets that my mom used to make her little pad on top of her window seat.  I added a little pearl to each one and done! All hung up.

I bought the flower hooks years ago at World Market.  I’m talking like for my first apartment in 2003.  But I never hung them up.  But I also couldn’t get rid of them.  I always thought they’d be so cute in a little girl’s room.  And ta-da. Perfect for holding all her headbands.Not sure what I’m going to do after making all her bows for winter outfits.  I’m going to have to make a second board!
