Treasury time has rolled around again

I managed to grab a Treasury after attending the Treasury Explosion Party... and explode it did. Just look at this pic Jared managed to grab at the time of the crash!

I was featured in the Etsy Teams are the Best treasury, compiled by fellow etsymom and etsyKids member, BeadedSocks. Much thanks to her for showcasing my Yellow Butterfly Hair Clip, perfect for infant and toddler hair. For more on Beaded Socks, visit her blog.

And as for my They're RICH! treasury, I chose rich colors, stemming from a search of magenta items a couple of days ago. I tucked each of these beauties into my favorites and prayed they didn't sell before I was able to use them (sorry!). We'll see if it's good enough to make the front page. *crossing fingers*

Visit both my and Beaded Socks' treasuries, and please click on each item featured in both to give these wonderful artists the recognition they deserve. Who knows? You may stumble upon something you just *have* to have!

Oh, and for those potentially buying me Christmas gifts this year... open an Etsy account. It'll come in handy for you.

Just want to give a run-down on what has been added to butterflybows.etsy.com this past week. Lots of new and adorable items are available, with much more to come. Take a peek. There's sure to be something you like!


These are my Green Dippy Dot Hair Clips. A pair of 1-3/4 inch (40 mm) alligator clips lined with grosgrain ribbon, and topped with a bow made of the same ribbon. I have other dippy dot hair clips available in more colors. To see them, visit the Lined Alligator Clips section of my Etsy shop.

This is my Basketball Felt Hair Clip. It would be the perfect clip for your little basketball player or fan. A 1-1/4 inch (30 mm) snap clip has been securely hand sewn into the back layer of felt. I have many more sports-themed felt hair clips on the way. You can see them all by visiting the Felt Hair Clip section of my Etsy shop.


These are my Yellow Butterfly Hair Clips. I listed them last night, and when I logged in this afternoon, found they had already sold. How exciting. If you like them, however, there's no need for disappointment. I've already made another pair and relisted them.

This is my Red, White, and Blue Rosebud Hair Clip. A 1-1/4 inch (30 mm) snap clip has been lined with grosgrain ribbon and topped with 3 satin roses. There are many adorable color selections available in the Rosebud Hair Clip design. To see the others, please visit the Lined Snap Clip section of butterflybows.etsy.com.

This is my Candy Corn Button Hair Clip. The perfect Halloween hair clip for your infant or toddler!

There are many more Halloween hair clips available in the Halloween Hair Clip section of butterflybows.etsy.com.

These are my Pink Butterfly Hair Clips, perfect for your girly girl. 1-3/4 inch (40 mm) alligator clips have been lined in grosgrain ribbon and topped with adorable pink felt butterflies. I also have yellow and lavender clips available in this style at butterflybows.etsy.com.

The ribbon used to make these Dainty Floral Hair Clips is too sweet! You may not be able to see it, but this satin ribbon has the palest blue flowers along with the more prominent pink roses.

This is my Orange Triple-Stitched Button Hair Clip. A 1-1/4 inch (30 mm) snap clip has been lined with grosgrain ribbon and topped with a matching orange button. The perfect hair clip to stay in your infant or toddler's fine hair, as are all of my Lined Snap Clips.

New Hair Clips available at Butterfly Bows!

I am expanding the inventory at butterflybows.etsy.com daily. It seems to me that the more items I have available, the more likely I'll have something someone likes and wants to purchase.

The cable went out yesterday, and our Internet is through our cable company, so I didn't have much to distract me from creating. I made quite a bit of hair clips while Miss M was napping because of this. Today, I photographed them all because it was a beautiful, sunshiny day here... perfect for photographing! So, be sure to visit butterflybows.etsy.com regularly, as I will be adding at *least* one item a day, hopefully more as time (and Miss M) allows.


These are my Orange Triple-Stitched Hair Clips. The ribbon featuring yellow, blue, and red stitching, lines a pair of 1-3/4 inch (40 mm) alligator clips. For more alligator clips, please visit the Lined Alligator Clips section of my Etsy shop.



I've already written about these adorable Lavender Butterfly Hair Clips, but they sold almost immediately upon my listing them, so I created another pair, and they are now available for purchase in my Etsy shop. I also have yellow and pink ones on the way, too, so be on the lookout for those!



This is my Yellow Rosebud Hair Clip. The 3 roses are securely attached to a 1-1/4 inch (30 mm) snap clip that is lined with grosgrain ribbon. This clip is the perfect clip for your baby or toddler who hasn't much more than fuzz atop her head. For more clips perfect for this age, please visit my Lined Snap Clips section of my Etsy shop.


These are my Taupe Hair Clips. Original name, huh? I love the color of them, I just have a hard time describing them. I mean, what do you call the ribbon? I'll have to think on it and may end up changing the title of these to something more catchy and descriptive. Any input would be much appreciated!

Did you notice?

I mixed my blog up a bit. I'm not sure it will stay this way, but I do like it. Leave a comment and tell me what you think. Is it reader-friendly enough for you?

This is my newest clip available at butterflybows.etsy.com. It is my Chocolate Chip Felt Hair Clip. A 1-1/4 inch (30mm) snap clip has been sewn into the back layer of felt.

This is my Autumn Leaves Felt Hair Clip Collection. Each has a 1-1/4 inch (30 mm) snap clip sewn into the back layer of felt and contains polyfill stuffing for a touch of puffiness. All the detail you see was entirely done by hand. If you wish to know more about these clips, please visit the Autumn/Fall section of my Etsy shop.

Little crafter in the making...


She stole my felt! And I had the hardest time getting it back from her, LOL. She's very much attracted to all my crafting items, and I'm sure it's for the same reason I am... because they're all so colorful. I can't wait to see if she has an artistic side when she gets older!
