Bow Frames

Need a place to keep all your little girl's bows in order and make sure they don't get ruined? 

BOW FRAMES 

Here are a bunch of examples of bow frames I have made. 

I will go through each one and tell you how I made them. 

So easy and so practical. 




I got this frame from the Christmas Tree Shop.  It came with a really bad picture in it.  I just took out all the guts, spray painted it green and hot glued all the ribbon for the bows and little loops of ribbon on the bottom for the headbands. 




This frame came from Michael's craft store. It was already pink.  I just took out the glass and backing and hot glued in the ribbons and the one on top to hang it. 




This frame was from a garage sale.  I used this frame to display the bows I made at my friends accessory booth.  This one is the same as the others.  Take out the really bad picture and the glass and hot glue on the ribbons after you spray pain the frame. 



This was a baby shower gift for a friend of mine.  I bought these frames from a guy on etsy that redoes antique frames.  I love his work, but as I was writing this blog I noticed he has no more frames on etsy. BOO 

I took 3 different kinds of ribbon to make these. 
One to hang the frames a really thin one for the smaller frames and a pattern ribbon to break it up. 
I hot glued it all together.



This one is was a little harder.  This one was also a baby shower gift.  I asked the mom to be about the baby's room decorations. 

Espresso wood frame I got on Amazon
I bought a sheet to match her crib set off of Etsy. 
She told me that her accent color was pink so I got the pink ribbon 
and she said she wanted a girl/fancy room so I blinged it out a bit. 

I didn't need to do anything to the frame I just took out the guts. I reused the cardboard and put some batting on it and then the matching sheet to make it puff up a bit. 

I hot glued all the ribbon on and then hand stitched it in a couple spots to make it look puckered.  On the stitch I hot glued the bling heart.

New baby shadow box


What you need:
Shadow box (Michael's craft store)
Wood Letter
Wood frame
Blingy flowers
Scrapbooking paper
Mementoes from the babies birth
glue stick
hot glue
wood-burning tool 


What you need to do:
  1. Gather all the mementoes from the babies birth.  I chose one of her first onsies, her hat she wore after birth, a headband from her first photos shoot, her info card from the hospital and her foot print. 
  2. Arrange the items in a cute way
  3. Open the shadow box
  4. Lay scrap book paper in the bottom and glue stick it on. 
  5. Hot blue the mementoes on.
  6. Add wooden frame with picture. I burnt the little birds on it with the wood-burning tool. 
  7. Add the wooden letter.  I also burnt on this.  You could paint it too to match. 
  8. Add blingy flower or anything else that will go with the theme of the shadow box
  9. Hot glue everything down so it doesn't move 
I can't tell you how happy this box makes me every time I walk by it. This is one of my most cherished crafts.

Enjoy :)
