Established in 2006, I discovered the passion for these bows after creating these beautiful accessories for my own lovable Maltese, Picolina. Just like someone that takes the time to knit an article from a spool of yarn I would sit at night in my living room with an endless spools of ribbon and develop an assortment of colors and designs for my pet to wear along with each of her various ensembles. Soon after that I was creating bows for friends and family members. Several people were contacting me with numerous requests for holiday themes and other styles. It didn't take long to realize that I loved what I was doing. I was always told when I was younger that if you have a passion for something and it makes you happy then you should pursue it whole heartedly. It brings me great joy to craft these lovely creations and then to see the joyfullness each pet owner gets as they include this fine accessory to their cherished pet's wardrobe. Each bow is personally hand sewn from premium material. These top quality accessories are crafted with loving care and durability for continued satisfaction. Every bow includes a 30mm French barrette and is hand sewn with dual layers of ribbon and strengthened in order to retain its structure and appearance. Made in the USA, Bows by Germaine have been featured in many upscale boutiques and shows that include Pet Fashion Week in New York City and boutiques as far away as St. Petersburg-Russia. Please view the various designs and themes included in my website. Bows created for any style or occasion including custom orders for a special holiday or your favorite sport. I am sure you will find these bows will provide you all the joy and satisfaction that you would expect in a fine handcrafted accessory. Thank you for your time and please do not hesitate to contact me if you have any questions.
