Also, and I know many don't think about this, don't market your ebay business either - by saying things like "I sell them on ebay, PM me if you want more info"...I've seen an increase in that on the forums...not only by ebay'ers but also by other professionals and if we allow it for one, we have to allow it for all...we don't allow self promotion on the forums

If you google "Custom Boutique Hair Bows" that should help you. The same can be said for Ebay. If it was a headband (I can't think of which hairbow you are talking about... You can search by BowBands or Headbands... Headbands may bring back ones for older children.

ARE YOU KIDDING ME... Why would I want BlackMail stuff out there????

I am very cautious about stuff like that... When I was on my visit, I wouldn't let them record the first couple of baths I gave Angelena.... I didn't want to show how green I was... THEN when I recorded her last bath... I got caught on tape doing not a good mommy thing.... SHE POOPed in the tub, and I freaked out! Let's just say... Rubber gloves are on my Baby Registery!!!!

HUGS

LOL!!! Too funny!

I thought about buying one of those "brain squeezers" but on the visit trip, Grace had one on and when I took it off, there was a red ring around where it was placed...and it was not tight. So, I'm opting for the bows and alligator clips instead. Ahem, I just recently bought a how to kit from someone around here. I'm not advertising for her...haven't received the whole package yet and I don't know her from "adam" anyway :-) But, I can't wait to start making bows. I used to make large bows for weddings and things (just family stuff, family parties...not a business, never sold anything) and I really enjoyed it so I thought why not? I especially want to make a patriotic bow since my daughter was born on the fourth of July!

OK...the red mark was why I was asking about the headbands being NYLON. I guess (remember I have 3 boys) I have been told that peditricians are saying not to put headbands on babies anymore unless they are the ones that are made from "nylons" (stocking-like material). I guess that the other kinds put too much pressure on the baby's skull. The one that Bianca has on in the pic in my signature is one that the band is made from a material like woman's nylon stockings. Take a peek!
