Hair Bow Holder

During this time of waiting on Madelyn to arrive, I've been trying to stay busy with some crafty projects.  One of my projects was to make a hair bow holder for Madelyn.  I'd seen these on Etsy and thought they were so cute, but I didn't want to spend $25 or $30 for one.  They looked easy enough, so I figured I'd try to make one.

I started with a solid white wooden "M" ($2.49), 2 spools of ribbon ($1.99 each), and 8 different colors of paint ($0.97 each), which will also be used for another project.  I traced the design from Madelyn's bedding onto the letter M and painted it in the same colors as her bedding.  I hot glued the ribbon onto the M so that it hangs down to hold her hair bows, tied a bow at the top, and voila....a hair bow holder made by Mommy!
