Okay, that title is a little inside joke but the other day while shopping at Target, Kerrigan saw these bows that were HUGE and she immediately decided that she needed one to top her gift to Uncle Lauren. I looked at the five dollar price tag and decided it probably wasn't an absolute necessity.
A few days later, I stopped in at the Dollar Tree to pick up tissue paper and saw that they had the same size bows for $1...a little - okay, a lot - easier to swallow. I grabbed three of them figuring that Britnee and Janae would most definitely feel left out if they didn't have one for Liz's and Shamu's gifts. Kerrigan was estatic as were the other two girls. These are just so much fun!
After I took the photo I realized that you would not get the full effect of the size even if I told you the box it tops was a boot box. So I decided to give you a more visual comparison. The red bow below is sitting on a dinner plate. Now go get one out of your cupboard and be amazed :)

They ARE fun~! (BTW, this year, I discovered the way to keep those bows on the gifts!!!) Hot glue gun - no less~ I wrapped and tagged all my gifts and then sat for a few hours "decorating" them with ribbons and pieces of Christmas sprigs/picks and/or bows. Then the next night I went to my girlfriends and helped her get ready for TWO Christmases (sp?). She wrapped and I tagged and decorated until 4:30 in the morning~~~ but we got the job done~! That glue gun was quite a hit this year...
