Hello fellow makers!
I am so excited to be on the blog with y'all today! This has been a dream of mine since The Hook Nook started featuring makers here, and to be living that dream has me reeling! Some of you know who I am, but for those who don't, I am Dani from The Purly Gates.
I am an heir to the Kingdom, a military spouse, a busy mom of three and a lover of all things yarn! If you follow me, you may see my location changing every few years! I absolutely love being a military family. We move a lot, but we get to experience more of the world and meet the most life-changing people! One of my favorite things about moving to a new place is meeting fellow military spouses who are yarn obsessed like me. It is always so fun to meet up with them and see their WIPs and hear their stories.
Let's get to making... Say hello to the Coliseum Bow Holder.
Remember how I said I am a mama to three? Well, two of those beautiful babies are girls and I found myself buying and losing bows like crazy because I didn't have a safe place to put them- especially the little ones! I decided it was time to change that and sat down with my hook and some Bernat Maker Home Decor yarn.
I truly love this holder. The triple crochets are perfect to clip alligator style bows to and the size can easily be adjusted to compliment your bow stash! Let's get started!
