Hello happy Ebay shoppers! Thank you for taking a minute to check out my ME page:) 

I am the bow lady behind three cupcakes--a super fun and creative hair accessory and custom beaded jewelry store! 

Just so you don't have to wonder...Who am I?

My name is Jennifer (JEN) and I am a 36 year old "don't work outside of the home" mom with 3 cupcakes--Anthony is 16, Evan Katherine is 5 and Riley is 3.5 years old. My husband is an Army Special Forces guy (We met in 2nd grade!), so I am a normal, busy and sometimes crazy woman! I deal with teenage dating drama--driving back and forth from football practice, while dressing up like a princess and listening to the Wiggles CD yet again and again and again...and when I get a few quiet moments, I make boutique bows! :)

I was born and trained to be an artist--I have a Bachelor of Fine Arts degree in Studio Art and was a high school art teacher for 7 years...now that I stay home to watch over my 3 kiddos, I REALLY needed a creative outlet and so three cupcakes was born!

Most of my auctions are bows and hair accessories for little girls. My girls don't have much hair and I needed something to help them look like little girls! I am soooooooo tired of the "cute little boy" comments! ha! :) I never really found creative bows that would stay in fine hair...so I made the clips myself and now I am creating things for you!

I still list other odds and ends as my family outgrows whatever the items may be, but hair candy and necklaces are my focus for now...and I am LOVING it! I am obsessed with scrabble tiles!

Email me if you don't see what you need...I will try my hardest to make it for you! You can see more examples of my work at http://threecupcakes.shutterfly.com and www.threecupcakes.etsy.com  
I LOVE custom orders!

Also--just a side note, I would never sell junk...or anything that my family wouldn't wear, own, etc. I pride myself on high quality craftsmanship (it's the teacher in me) and I work very hard to get the orders out as soon as possilbe. Just know that you will get clean, quality items at a fair starting price and I try to ship within 2-3 business days of receiving payments. However, if you make a large order, please understand that my family comes first and ebay is a part time job for me. I will always email you the day the order will ship. Some orders just take a few extra days to complete.

I am also an avid ebay buyer as well, so I know how important customer service is--don't ever worry about purchasing my creations. I treat each customer like a life long friend! 

A little about my bows:
All of my bows are lovingly created by me…securely hand tied with sturdy, high grade thread, in my clean and smoke free home. I never use a bow maker machine or stand. All ribbon ends are heat sealed to prevent fraying and I only use name brand grosgrain and satin ribbons.
I carry hundreds of colors, patterns, polka dots, designs and holiday prints in all kinds of ribbons and widths: grosgrain, satin, velvet and organza. If I do not have what you need on hand, I can get it. I purchase ribbon at least once a week from many companies, local stores and online shops. Every bow you see can be made to fit your individual needs—sizes, colors, shapes, mountings, etc. Just ask!
The baby headbands are a stretchy and soft cotton blend, made to fit babies up to about 5 year olds. These are NOT nylon and will last much longer. I carry about 30 to 35 colors and several patterns. Please let me know the age of your daughter when you place a headband order, so that I am sure to make you the appropriate size for her head. You can clean these headbands with laundry wipes, like Shout or use a Tide laundry pen. How cool is that???
The bottle caps are printed and triple sealed and you can order anything you want for that image. The triple seal prevents the images from smearing or smudging if your cap accidently gets wet. I do not recommend you getting it wet on purpose, though. You can match a special outfit, choose her favorite characters, cheer for your favorite sports team, etc. The possibilities are endless! I complete the order by creating your hair accessory or necklace with your one of a kind embellishment.
If you have any questions or would like know more about my bows, you can visit my website at www.threecupcakes.com or www.threecupcakes.etsy.com Online, you will find several simplified colors charts and more ordering options. However, I must keep my online options limited, so if you don’t see what you need, contact me directly by email and we will discuss your custom order more in depth.
Thank you so much! And remember…a girl can never have too many bows! Take care, have a super day and happy EBAYING!
