Buying Bows



Last night Dan and I met with a few of our travel group members that live nearby and had dinner at Mimi's. We had such a good time! One of the girls has been to China before and had great tips! One I hadn't thought about was to call our bank and credit card company to let them know we would be traveling in China so they wouldn't deny our purchases. Also, she said we can easily go to ATM's and get money using our debit card, so no need to bring Yuan with us. What a blessing to have met these wonderful people in our group and I look forward to our trip even more now!

This morning, I am up shopping for bows! Seventh Diamond has started her own shop and her bows are unique and wonderful! Click on the picture above to go check out her boutique!

Thank you so much! I have been seeing quite a bit of traffic on the bow blog from your blog this morning. I have been printing out orders and looking at wholesale ribbon sites since things are really starting taking off.
I so appreciate your post. Word of mouth is helping us so much!

Cute bows! :)

That is so cool that you got to meet with your fellow travelers! It amazes me how many of you live in Arizona. What an amazing thing to have those connections!! :)

Love you,

careful with the ATM thing. You could be charged fees for using an ATM outside the USA. You could check this with your bank though. Blessings from TN...looking forward to seeing you all together in China!

I have been following your process
I pray for you that July is your
month! I'm so sorry about all the
delays, I cant even imagine! But
our God is good and he will not
give you more than you can handle!


Wishing you all the best!!!

First, let me just say that my heart just sank after reading about the delay. Girl, God must have some kind of amazing daughter waiting for y'all for all the crazy delays that have happened! Seriously, I almost couldn't even stomach the thought of what your heart did when reading of another delay RIGHT before leaving!! I prayed for you right then and there. Second, a MUST have for your trip is DUCT TAPE. You laugh, but I guarantee you will use that stuff for more than one thing! ; )

You lucky duck!! I wish there were some locals in my travel group. I'm going to be relying on you for all my travel advice!

I'll do some bow shopping when I get back from my trip! How fun!
