KORKER BOW

 Today is Korker Bow time!  I've learned the skill of making korker bows.  I was a little surprised to learn that you actually have to bake the ribbon!  I've baked a lot of things in my time, some not even food!  You know, the Christmas Decorations, hand print plaques, etc. but who'da thought I'd have to bake ribbon!

As with all crafts, there's do's and don'ts to get the right amount of curl without ruining the ribbon.  It took a few tries, but I was better at this than I thought I would be!   These bows are so colorful and just cute!  There's a lot of ways to use them in the bow designs so I'm excited to try my hand at it!

So....long story short...watch for the completed Korker Bows to show up in the "All Things Buyable" tab.  Start saving now so you can buy lots of byLAM Designs Korker Bows in several sizes and colors!

  2. Actually, anything is possible! I've made the pink/purple/white, black/white, black/gray/white, blue/white, blue/green, blue/cream, green/white, orange/pink/white, orange/white, pink/white, red/white, red/blue/white. I think that's all so far, but I really can do whatever colors or color/combos you want. I haven't done any solid ones, but we can do those also. We also have a pom pom bow coming next week that looks like the headband photo below on the right.
