Bow-Inspired Gift Guide Cover

I have a major bow obsession at the moment!

 

Speaking of which, bows are really having a moment right now. Are you loving this trend?

 

Mother’s Day is coming up and while this isn’t specifically for the holiday, I thought this gift guide would come at a great time to give you some cute bow decor ideas if you still need to buy for your sweet mommas. I am definitely running behind on that note and need to get on it!

 

Anyhoo, I hope you’ll find some of these gift ideas (yes, they can just be gifts for you! 😉) helpful and that you’ll find something you love!

 

Cute Bow Decor for Her

Bow-Inspired Gift Guide

Bow Necklace Holder – I thought this necklace holder was so chic when I came across it! If you have gold decor in your home or know someone who loves gold, I feel like this is a great fit and it’s not overdone with the bow either.

Blue Bow Phone Case – I actually bought this one as a gift for my dear friend Carrie from Curly Crafty Mom. Casely makes fantastic cases and I thought this was so pretty!

Erin Condren Healthcare Notebook – Okay, hear me out on this one for those of you (like me) that are not in healthcare…it’s still so perfect! I love the bows and how they made the stethoscope into a heart.

Avara Frances Sweater – Avara has the most beautiful sweaters. I wear the ones I have on repeat, but always get compliments on them! There’s a lot of bow-pieces on their website, but this one was my favorite!

Leopard Print Bow Slippers – I live in my slippers at home, so this gift guide wouldn’t be complete without adding a pair. I love the cute leopard print, but they also have different designs (including different bow ones!).

Pink Bow Throw Pillow Covers – I love throw pillows! They elevate a room so easily, and I just adore this pretty pink bow design!

Blue Gingham Bow Sandals – These sandals give me Wizard of Oz vibes (my favorite movie even though I hate musicals, haha). They are beautiful and I always love the gingham print.

Quilted Pink Bow Kindle Case – This might be the cutest Kindle case I’ve seen yet! I love the pretty pink bows and how it’s soft and quilted. Remember when the quilted bags used to be a trend? I’m probably aging myself, haha!

 

Bow-Inspired Gift Guide PIN

That’s a wrap on this bow-inspired gift guide, sweet friends! It was hard to pick just a few things to include in this post, I saved a lot of other stuff to share maybe on stories at some point, haha. Let me know what your favorite is from this list, and if you love the bow trend or not!

    I love the bow trend but I actually only have one sweater with bows on it and no accessories! Those slippers are adorable and I love the gingam sandals too!

    These are such cute ideas for those who love bows. I would not have considered bows as a theme for a woman’s gift unless they were pregnant. But looking at these gift ideas, I can see why someone would be drawn to them.

      Thank you so much, Crystal!! 🙂 Up until the bow trend took off, I think sometime last year, I thought the same way. I love that there are so many pretty pieces out there now with the bow decor for women!

I’ve been using the @theinia_official Flare device and one of my favorite benefits is how it supports lymphatic drainage, which helps reduce puffiness, redness, and that tired look we all get sometimes.

It’s a simple, relaxing step yet makes such a big difference in how my skin feels and looks:
❤️ Less puffiness
🧡 More sculpted, refreshed look
💛 A little moment of self-care in my day

I love using it a few times per week or before getting ready when I want that extra glow! ✨
