Did you happen to notice that Noodle has some wild curls? One day her hair is straight as a pin and the next she has more curls than a poodle. It takes some creative finagling to corral all that hair, and these bows by Stefanie’s Bownanza do just that!
Stefanie’s Bownanza can make custom bows to your specifications. Just ask! Bows can also be made with non-slip foam (added free upon request) which we LOVED. As you’ll see, even Noodle’s very active play couldn’t knock off those bows!
Her bows run from simple and sweet:
to fancy and thematic:
We received three bows to review. Stefanie sent along this one from M2M Heaven, which I hope to wear with the Goldfish outfits I’ve been lusting after at Gymboree:
BUY IT: You can purchase any of these styles at Stefanie’s Bownanza. Tell them Making Lemonade sent you, and you’ll receive 10% off AND free shipping for orders over $25.

I am a HUGE fan on Stefanies creations, she made me a personalized hairbow holder to match my daughters room and it is just PERFECT, I have also purchased bows from both of her shops, her clippies are the best and can be worn with anything and ALWAYS stay in place, and the M2MG are always the perfect accent to ANY Gymboree outfit! My Absolute FAVORITE bow yet was this was I ordered from her:
http://www.etsy.com/view_listing.php?listing_id=40146777 It matches the Fairy Fashionable line perfectly and I have had TONS of compliments on it whenever my daughter wheres it! So glad you featured Stefanie in this blog, she is such a great seller! And the shipping is ALWAYS super quick too! A Major Plus! 😉

Love StefanieBownanza bows! They are the only bows we buy for our granddaughter.
The St Patty’s Day bow is so very neat!
mysimplegreenbaby says
I love the one with the colorful retro dots. Maybe I should get some of these so people can stop feeling embarrassed for mistaking Olive for a boy. But really, if they couldn’t guess from her pink shoes and her pink hoodie, a bow probably isn’t going to help much either.

My favorite clippies from Stefanie:
http://www.etsy.com/view_listing.php?listing_id=42412784
These are coming in my next order, but in the meantime they are the cutest thing I’ve ever seen.
I ordered from her a week or so ago, upon getting my clippies I had to order more. Her work is awesome, and turnaround time is FAST. 🙂
