MOM! Where's my favorite hair clip??

Ahhh, September. Back to school time. New clothes, new shoes, new back packs and new hair accessories! These days you can find some pretty amazing hair bows, clippies, korkers and other cool hair accessories to match any outfit or hair type.

I was recently introduced to Apple Pie Accessories, a fellow Alberta, mom-run business started by Sabrina. At Apple Pie Accessories you will find high quality Hair Sassies which are alligator clips adorned with gross grain ribbon or in the case of Mbellished Hair Sassies some extra bling is added for that extra special touch. Sabrina gives you the option of adding a no-slip grip for extra fine hair which is something I know all about!

But what to do with all those Sassies?? Here at Bouncing Off The Walls we have created our own line of custom designed and hand painted hair bow holders that are second to none. I can guarantee you will not find anything like them out there! All of our hair bow holders can be completely customized to go with any theme, decor or colors. They hang on the wall and have plenty of ribbon from which to attach all those hair accessories.



For the month of September Bouncing Off The Walls has teamed up with Apple Pie Accessories and with every purchase of a hair bow holder you will receive a FREE set of Hair Sassies! So if you've been thinking about purchasing a hair bow holder then now is the time! What a great gift idea!

This offer expires October 1, 2010. Hair Sassie colors/designs will be randomly chosen and shipped with the bow holder.

Hair Bow Holders

One of the newest additions to Bouncing Off The Walls and now one of the more popular items is my custom hair bow holders. I have to admit that as a mother of a boy a hair bow holder was not something that had even entered my mind as a must-have item! Then along came a daughter in 2008 and things around here sure shifted! Said daughter was not only born with lots of hair, but CRAZY hair to boot! When you're born with hair like that everyone starts buying you hair accessories to try and tame the wildness!

But where to keep all these lovely bows and korkers? Clippies? (Ya, I had to learn a whole new language too!) I found some nice bow holders online, but of course the creative wheels started turning and I thought, "how great would it be to make bow holders that were COMPLETELY customizable?" Not just the colors or personalization, but what if I could make ANY type of bow holder requested?

And so I set out doing just that! I hand cut all my bow holders from 1/2" thick Baltic Birch plywood and I can pretty much do any design or shape imaginable as they're done entirely free-hand. That's what makes them so fabulous!

I do have to say that they've actually become one of my favorite items as I'm free to just draw the design and cut it as I see fit!

One of the biggest requests lately though is to make some that you can also hang hair bands on. I'm working on it! When I make one that I know will work and is of high-quality you'll be the first to know!

Until then, keep those ideas coming! I love them!
