baby headbands | The CSI Project

Our giveaway this week on The CSI Project will be sponsored by a fabulous shop known as Little Penelope Lane. 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!
