an aBOWsolutely sweet giveaway

I am SO EXCITED to tell you about this week's Sugar Bolus!

This week I am giving away one of my most favorite things.... HAIR BOWS!

Oh, but not just ANY hair bows.  No, no, no....  These are SPECIAL hair bows.

They are special because they are made by Sweetness Bows - my absolute favorite bow maker of all time! 

And they are also special because they are Diabetes Awareness Bows!

The winner of this giveaway will win TWO Diabetes Awareness Bows with clipplies.



The clippies go in the middle of the bows.  The bows can be worn with or without the clippies.  The clippies can be worn by themselves, as well!  There are many, many wonderful options!!!

Are you an adult and think you're a little old for hair bows?  Is your CWD a boy who is not going to wear a bow in his hair?!?  You can still use these!  Would they not look adorable on a pair of flip flops?!?  Or you could attach the clippies to a sweater as a pin.  The possibilities are endless!

Did I mention that Sweetness Bows is my favorite bow maker EVER?  I'm a bit addicted to her bows.  Seriously.  Just ask J... He will tell you.  I might need help.  The ladies at school always look to see what bow Sweets is wearing each day.

Our favorites include the Dr. Seuss Thing One and Thing Two bows and the Minnie Mouse bows!  She is even SO AWESOME that she has made me bows to match specific outfits - like an Easter dress or a Gymboree line (another addiction of mine.... Hey, at least it's not crack.  I'm not hurting anyone!).  And check out these special bows she made for Sweets to wear while she does her Ambassador duties for the Diabetes Dude!


Are those not the cutest things you've ever seen?!?!?

So....  You really MUST go on over to her website and check out her amazing stuff!  Make sure you have your credit card ready... because I KNOW you will find something that you can not live without!  And while you're at it, check her out on facebook!  She has contests and posts ready to ship or on sale bows frequently!

    Very, VERY cute :) Love these! Isabel doesn't have any bows - her hair is too short, really - but I might have to investigate that site and see if she wants to grow her hair!

    Yes! Please enter me into the contest. I would love to have these for Natalie. You sound like me. I have my own bow lady that custom makes bows to match Natalie's gymboree outfits. So addicting!
