The beautiful hair accessories at Little Penelope Lane are designed and crafted by shop owner Sarah Hull.
The story of how Little Penelope Lane came to be is just too good not to share. Here it is, in Sarah’s own words:
“In 2003 we welcomed our sweet daughter Katie into our family. Katie was born with Spina Bifida (to read her story click here) and I noticed early on when I took her to all of her doctors, hospital and therapy appointments wearing a bow she received extra attention. I also noticed that other children her age would often comment about the bow in her hair first and then ask about her walker or wheelchair second.
To me, the bows seemed to be a buffer. People would say “I love her bow…” and then ask about her situation. We always welcomed the opportunity to share Katie’s story and the bows seemed to open the door to that, as crazy as it sounds, it’s true!
Less than two years after Katie was born we welcomed another sweet girl into our family, Ella.”With two little girls, our bow collection only grew and grew…
…. and so did our girls!
(above Katie (7) and Ella (6) now)!
People would often ask if I had made the girls bows and I would say that I wish I had, but I always just bought them at boutiques or on etsy.
Sweet sisters Katie and Ella
Then one rainy day close to two years ago, the girls and I sat down to do some crafts and and I made a bow, and then another and another! I had so much fun making them that soon after I started up “Little Penelope Lane” and the rest is history!
“My goal is to make hair accessories that both moms and daughters can enjoy together!”
Sarah puts her heart into all of her products, and it shows! Just take a look at some of these lovelies that caught our eye:

I love the Doilie headwrap. Boy, there are some super cute things at Little Penelope Lane!
How to choose! I think my sweet girl would like the Surprise Party hair wrap, but Mama loves those vintage inspired flower clips- all of them!
My sister-in-law just welcomed a second girl, so I’d love to get my nieces matching headbands … maybe “Strawberry Fields Forever”
It’s so hard to choose one, but I’d pick the Boom headband.
Great story
Girls always look cute with big bows in their hair
I love the wool felt clip in purple (love that I can use it on a hair band, by itself or attach it to a purse or bag!) and deep purple – one of my favorite colors!! I must admit that it was hard to pick a favorite!
