I have another good find!!!! This gentleman makes Greek organization pieces and other regalia as well.  Check out his bio below and some pics of his pieces.

Born and Raised in Houston TX


I started making jewelry in school because I like being different. I want people around me to be different. I didn't like seeing the same Greek license plates or Greek Jewelry. I thought if I could study and learn, I could market affordable custom jewelry to friends.

What started as a hobby turned into people all over the US wanting jewelry. It all started with Facebook. Everything I do is with tools and my hands. No machines. I don't have any orders laying around because they are made to order. I love what I do. I also love seeing smiles on my customers faces. All I need is a picture and I create it.

Stay creative and enjoy,

Little Bow Peep Girls.......hair accessories

Little Bow Peep Girls!!!!





Greetings,

Today's post features Little Bow Peep Girls line of hair accessories.  The CEO, S. Jenell Green, is a New York native but I met her while she was living in Shreveport, La.  We had the privilege of reconnecting a few weeks ago and she told me about her company.  Check out her bio below and you know I am going to post some pics of her work.  Another great and inspirational sister doing her thing. 


Little Bow Peep Girls
It stared off as an idea I had back In August 2007-I loved for my daughter to have a bow for every outfit.......the boutique I was buying them from were not lasting which = me no longer spending my money with them on bows because I said to myself that I could do this.  I wanted to include people I felt were closest to me(but that didn't work out), but in the process of starting up the business I lost my Mommy and that shook me.  I took a couple months off trying to regroup but then her Mom(my Nana) went on to join my Mother so I had to then thrust myself back into LBPG's to keep my mind off of those things.........

Little Bow Peep Girls, LLC  believes that having your own business is the corner stone of independence.   We started our business for many reasons but the most important was that as people of color and women we do not leave legacies for our children.  I wanted my daughter and the children in our family to have something that they could be proud of and call their own while taking pride in the business we are building.  We believe in our brand contributing to the economics of society.  It's very liberating to become an entrepreneur and not accept another's definition of success for our lives and having Little Bow Peep Girls, LLC is the freedom to pursue our own success.  No matter how many times something don't go our way, we never give up because success is a journey, not a destination and that's what having your own business means to me/us!

We have Bows  for all ages...headbands, bow holders, bibs, onesies, and tees for Mommy&daughter!
