I made this little bow a few months ago and posted her on Etsy for sale. Yesterday I got a special last minute request for 9 of them. The darling customer wanted them for her daughter's soccer team this Saturday. Guess what their team name is...that's right, the Love Bugs! How cute is that!?! When I played little league soccer we were the panthers or the bobcats, nothing cute like the Love Bugs :0)
The actual colors of the team were red and pink with black and white accent colors (nothing like our brown and yellow of the 80's). Due to a mishap involving my husband being sent to Hobby Lobby alone on his way home, I had to go back to the store myself. While there I realized that the ladybug ribbon not only comes in pink and green (which I already had), but in the exact team colors as well!!! You know what that meant...
I HAD to make all new bows in the new ribbon colors to match those polyester soccer shorts exactly!
After a lot of diet soda...and some sugar to replace what was missing in the soda...I finished these babies about 4:30 this morning! That is the latest night I have had in some time :0)
Cute though, right?
9 little girls running all over the soccer field wearing my baby bug bows this Saturday...Priceless!
It was all worth it :0)
Very cute- now go get some sleep! ;)
ReplyDeleteSeriously they are darling!
