BowLamb

We were lucky enough to have a newborn baby model one of our bows from our newborn baby line called BowLamb! We create the bows with a special backing that you use with a syrup type glue (made out of all natural ingredients, safe, nontoxic, and washes easily off with water). Your baby doesn't even have to have hair to wear these!

Our Models

We have three beautiful daughters that have fun together. They are their own persons with completely different personalities from each other. And from time to time they will show up as our models wearing our bows! We've named our collections after them. Ella, Lilah, and Remy - the BowSheep baby crew~

Our Products

BowSheep is constantly creating and inventing the way we do bows and accessories. Each bow is handmade and considered a "specialty bow" meaning most of the designs we create are unique with our own special touch. Each bow is made with quality materials and we test them to make sure they stay in fine hair for babies and in hair for ladies. Our business consists of 3 designers with different perspectives and styles so that we can keep adding to our collections. Each collection is named after our own little one Lilah, Remy, and Ella. Below you will see some designs of our bows that serve as examples of what types of bows we do. We have so many different designs that are not pictured here but this is a taste of what we do. We love custom orders as well! We've done flowergirl daisy hairbows (for a wedding) and christening bows to funky hardcore grenade bows in the past!

Visit our online store at www.bowsheep.com to see which designs you can buy now!
