Bow Ties are Cool!
We threw some together for the boys so we could do our
Ghosts in the Graveyard Photo Shoot!
I took some scrap pinstriped material...

totally eyeballed it!

Wrapped it around the rectangle gift bow and hot glued it in place.
Put some elastic lace around it so it would fit as a headband.
Then I safety pinned them behind the boys collars so they
would fit their necks for the shoot!
Now the girls can wear as a headband!
(girls: my daughter and me)
Awesome. I love multi-purpose items!
