A great idea for dressing the kids festive for your parties!!

Isn't this the cutest!?! I made it using this tute from A Heart For Home for homemade paper bows using magazines and just used ribbon instead.  I ended up using way more than the 9 strips it called for but I love how it turned out! Besides, one of my greatest gifts looks terrific all wrapped up in a bow!
