The gift that keeps on giving

When I had Darcy, not only did I receive some really wonderful gifts, I also received some really cute ribbon on them. I thought to myself, "I'm sure I could use these for something", so I saved them. A couple of days ago, the weather was dreary, Ava was engrossed in a My Little Pony DVD, and Darcy was asleep. I looked at the sinks full of dirty dishes and the mounds of laundry to be folded on the couch and decided to do some crafts ;) I made the girls some hair bows out of the ribbon I saved. I don't know which was better, the 30 minutes I got to sit and create something, or the fact that I wound up with 5 bows for almost free! I did have to spend 50 cents for small ribbon for the center. However, 50 cents for 5 hair bows is extremely cheap! Here is what I created:

note: I am very aware that I take lousy photos

While I was making those bows, I also made this one from ribbon I had bought:

My motto for the day was,"When life hands you ribbons, make some bows".

I know, I know, I am a big cheese ball!
