50% off sale and newly listed items

Wow! It's been a very busy week around here. I've been trying to keep up with orders and still get new stuff listed.

Tomorrow is the start of a new sale on my website, 50% off all boutique style bows, including M2MG. It only lasts through Sunday at midnight, so be sure to get your orders in!

I also got my newest M2MG matches listed there, for the Wild One line. Here are pics:

Black Friday Sale!

So I've been super busy getting a whole bunch of listings up for Ebay for this busy buying/selling time, and I haven't been able to post much here. But I have some super cute stuff up on ebay right now just in time for Christmas events.

And I've also been trying to keep some new things consistently up on etsy, but I haven't been so good about that. Why? Because I opened up a whole new shop over there! Yeah, I guess I wasn't busy enough, lol. The address for that shop is
http://lovemylegs.etsy.com
I don't have any bows over there, it's all little leg warmers! Just in time for winter and keeping stylishly warm. My girls are loving them :)

But the biggest thing that's been keeping me busy is getting ready for this big weekend on my website. I am participating in the Little Black Boxes Black Friday event. So pretty much my entire store will be on sale this coming Friday through Monday. Here are the specifics!

30% off all boutique style bows
40% off all M2MG and all korkers
and a whopping 50% off all basic bows, headbands, butterflies, flowers, and bowties!!

Now that's a sale worth hitting, right?
And to top it off, free shipping on all orders over $25. Use coupon code BFSHIP. This coupon will ONLY work on those days. So no sneaking it in a day early :)

Happy Thanksgiving to everybody, and happy shopping!!

How to make iron-on labels

Want a quick tutorial on how to make those labels to put on your bows? Or on your clothing designs? Really they'd work on anything you need to label that is made of fabrics. Like the jackets your kids wear to school and forget to bring home :)

Anyways, here goes!

You'll need :

a graphics design program

printer

printable fabric

heat-n-bond lite

iron

First you need to use your graphics program to create the image you'd like on your label. Anything you'd like! Here's mine:

Save this as it's own image.

Now open another image roughly 8"x10.5", just smaller than a standard sheet of paper. Cut and past as many of your small label onto that page, arranging into rows.

Once you have that finished, save it as it's own image as well.

Load up your printer with your printable fabric. Here's where I get mine:

http://www.cjenkinscompany.com/Miracle_Fabric_Sheets_p/whitemiraclefabricsheet.htm

I find their prices are the best, and I really like their fabric. It feeds very nicely through my printer. Print the page with the rows of labels onto your printable fabric.

Let the ink dry completely, then pull the paper backing off your fabric.

Here's what it should look like:

Now get out your heat-n-bond and iron. Here's what it looks like, its an iron on adhesive with a paper backing.


Lay your fabric (face side up) on the heat-n-bond's adhesive side (not the smooth paper side). Iron on, following the instructions. This will also heat set the ink, so that it doesn't run or bleed. Then cut the page out.

Let this cool completely, then peel the paper backing off. Your labels need only to be cut out and ironed onto whatever surface you're wanting to label. They will iron on quite quickly, you only need about 2 seconds.

I hope this tutorial helps somebody!!
