Precious Sweeties!








I just cannot stop blogging! I have been a busy little bee making all sorts of goodies for my girls as well as wonderful customers. I adore the new bottle caps that I got in especially the "Big, Middle, and Little Sister" ones and the "Jesus Loves Me" ones. These are perfect for Spring/Summer and great for church, school, even VBS! My camera died before I could get a picture of the Jesus Loves Me bow, but I did get plenty of Isabella wearing it and Kadence with her Hello Kitty bow. She loves Hello Kitty and I really enjoyed creating this one of a kind bow for her. Anyway enjoy the pictures and thanks for looking!


I have not stopped giving thanks for you, remembering you in my prayers.
Ephesians 1:16 (NIV)

Olivia's "Little Sister" Photo shoot




Olivia is something else. As the youngest of 5 children, she has developed a sort of "survival" behavior, lol. Anyway she is definitely her own person doing her own thing, and she will let you know right away what she wants and will scream if you don't produce it fast enough. Olivia hates having her picture taken. She gets this "My puppy ran away " look on her face, then ignores you. I can take 100 pictures of her and I will be lucky to get 2 where she is actually looking at me. That's how it went yesterday. I just wanted a couple of pictures of her being her adorable blue eyed little self but she wasn't having it. Needless to say I settled for some of the super awesome jumbo "Little Sister" bottle cap bow I made for her. So enjoy!

Bottle Cap Bows






I have been doing bottle cap bows for about a year now. I just love them! Just about anything you can dream up can be made into a bottle cap. I do not make my own bottle caps but I order them from a lady in California because of all the bottle caps I have gotten in the past, hers are simply the best. She puts a heated sealant on the them so they do not ruin when wet. Shipping is costly so I like to do a bulk order but I can see about ordering smaller if you really need something particular. She also makes the name bottle caps, which I adore! Those make the most awesome birthday gifts and I get usually get them in less than 2 weeks. Above are just a few examples of caps I currently have in stock. So many cute things to choose from!

Jumbo Bows


Introducing Jumbo Bows by Dazzle Me Boutique!

This is by far my most favorite bow I have made so far. Maybe you question why, but when I get my tulle in and make a matching tutu and have one of my darling little girls model it, you will see why!

Some people like large bows, some people like small bows, and for some people, the more the ribbon and layers-the better! So I will be creating unique designs just for you. Whatever size, color, and scheme you can dream up, I can probably do.

It's hard to tell the actual size without it being on a head but I'll get those pictures up as soon as possible. You can choose any design or color you want, just let me know :)

These are probably going to go for $13.50 maybe $14 just given the amount of ribbon and time put into them. This pretty little thing here took almost 2 hours!!

Thanks for stopping by and I hope you like this new creation :)

New Rule

Hey everyone I need to address a new rule. Usually I am pretty good about letting you pay me when you get your items, but I just cannot do that any longer. You see when you make a request from me, usually it is something unique or something you want matched. So I go to the store and I pick up ribbon, embellishments, and more - to make your very own item.

This stuff is not cheap as many of you well know. I cannot just say hey give me this much ribbon (on some yes but most I buy it by the spool) and I only need one butterfly out of that package so can you just let me open the package and pay for one butterfly or daisy or whatever it is you requested. Of course I have to buy the whole package and I often spend $20 to $30 each time I go to the store, sometimes much much more! Then I have spent my money we needed for say gas or bread and I make your bows or holders or flip flops, whatever you requested, and I say to you your order is done come get it, and often times people put it off for several days to even weeks.

The issue is that is not fair to me or my family. We are spending the money planning on having it repaid and then it isn't and it hurts us. So a dear friend who also runs a boutique told me she has everyone pay upfront. That way everything is taken care of and if she needs something she has the money to go get it. I hope you understand and I do not want to lose any of you as valued customers, but try to imagine yourself in my position. I have paypal and I can invoice you. You do NOT have to have a paypal account in order to pay through paypal. I believe you can pay with any credit or debit card. If cash is your only means of purchasing, please message me and we can work something out. I am more than willingly to make exceptions if you can pay me as soon as the items are completed. Thank you in advance and I look forward to working with you and creating some more lovely things for you.

Also picking up items is also becoming an issue. I have very cheap shipping rates. Considering the fee paypal charges me after you pay, it is even less. I do not mind meeting you or my husband meeting you when it is convenient for us. He works in Fort Smith so that is no problem if you want to meet him before 3 pm Monday through Friday. Anything outside of that is going to have to start charging a $3 handling fee. You are always welcome to come get it here in Greenwood or have it shipped. Please let me know when ordering what you prefer so I can invoice you properly. Thanks again.

Spring into Spring Time!


The Spring into Spring Time bow give-away went very well! The deal was whoever referred my 200th friend on facebook won a free bow. A lovely lady let me know that a sweet friend Kelly had referred her to my page and thus Kelly won this great bow pictured above. Kelly does not have any children yet so she is giving it to a friend. So sweet!

I will continue to do other give-aways. My next one is going to be a drawing. If you spend $20 with me from April 5th to the 31st of May your name will be put in a drawing for a summer bow. You can enter as much as you like so the more precious bows you get the more chances you have! The Drawing will take place on June first! Continue referring those friends and voicing your opinions. I cannot wait to see what I come up with next!
