How Do You Make Bows And Dresses?

They have some like this?: http://www.artbeads.com/clear-98.htm...&zmap=CLEAR-98
I am looking for ones that are about a inch long. My boss had some (she made bows) but she doesn't remember where she got it from because she doesn't do those anymore said she thinks she bought it in a store in Dallas.
She shops at so many places.

Last weekend I bought little clips at Wallmart in the baby section that have sparkly crowns on then adorable, I have also bought butterflys and ddragonflys they are small and perfect for yorkie hair.

I used to groom dogs and here's how I made them. I hope I can explain it well enough so you get the general idea. Take a piece of ribbon, however long you want, and hold it wrong side up. Take both ends and loop them towards the middle so it kinda looks like that breast cancer awareness pin. Hold ribbon in one hand and stretch a rubber band crossways right over the middle of the ribbon. Bring both ends of the rubberband over the ribbon to the back and put both ends of the rubber band on one finger. Take the bottom strand of the rubber band and pull it over the top one strand of the rubberband. Keeping hold of the top rubberband strand ( it is now on the bottom remember) pull and the rubberband will form a kinda "noose "on the ribbon. And WALA !! You have a bow. Start will a bigger piece of ribbon and a large rubberband until you get the idea. It takes about 3.2 seconds to make one. When you get it figured out, you can use two or three pieces of ribbon, maybe a little lace backing, whatever. Then all you do is separate the pieces of ribbon and fluff.
It's morning so I hope I expained this well enough. Practice practice practice
Good Luck
