Children and Their Hair Clips, Bows, Headbands and Scrunchies — Revisited

Last month a reader asked me about some of the products in my 2008 post about hair bow storage, and I had to inform them that the products are no longer available. (I also noticed that I assumed that only little girls would care about such adornments; yikes!)

You certainly don’t need special products for these items; all sorts of random containers could work just fine. (I noted some ideas in the 2008 post.) But if you’d like something special, the good news is that I’m finding products I like better than those I listed last time.

You’ll notice that some of these bow and hair clip holders look like variations on French ribbon memo boards. Many of them include a rod at the bottom for headbands.

The bow and headband holder at the top of this post comes from BenliBowtique, which has holders in various patterns and sizes.

This bow holder and hairband organizer comes from EverlastingsBySue, which also has many options to choose from.

And here’s a hair clip organizer from XoXoAmour, with the same type of design but a very different vibe.

This bow organizer and headband holder from Wood Decor With Love is a nice variation on the same general approach as the three prior products. You can get these in different sizes and colors.

Nathan and Meg at Field Day Co explain how they came to make their minimalast hanging bow holders: “We are ... parents that found ourselves with too many bows and too little organization. The containers and bags of bows were getting out of control and left us frustrated while doing our daughter’s hair in the morning. We searched online for a solution that met our needs and personal style. We could not find what we were looking for so we designed and created our own. We also realized that other parents might like these too.”

This headband and bow holder from MyEllieBeans, with its individual clips, makes it easy to grab the one you want — no need to tip all the others off the rod first to get to one in the middle. You can order the holder with two, three or four rods — and of course the name is personalized. (You can also choose this saying: There are too many bows — said no one ever.)

Finally, I had to include this scrunchie holder, even though the store it comes from is currently on a break. Here’s hoping they do indeed come back from that break, because this is adorable — and not just for children.
