DIY Bows and Stuff For Uganda
I’m so excited to see what bows you will create for Round 2 for the orphans in Uganda. I don’t have a crafty bone in my body, but you have inspired me to dig deep and find some great blog posts on making DIY headbands and bows. If you prefer to purchase brand new bows and headbands, I have added some wonderful links with a purpose to buy for the Headband Project. Typically, Ugandan girls wear their hair cut very short- I love the beauty of hair all over the world.
This is a special headband project for my Visiting Orphans Uganda mission trip, but I wanted you to know I have a big team of 30 who will bring other gifts and donations for boys and girls! This is the project God put on my heart and I am grateful for you helping me crown more princesses [and princes] in Kampala and Jinja!
Email me if you have any suggestions or questions. You can mail your bands & bows to me at: 1482 Lakeshore Drive, Branson, MO 65616 (attn. Bows For Uganda)
