I’m sort of in love with the mini little collection of batwing bow ties. I use a more voluptuous thistle shape for the everyday bow ties in the shop- so these are so refreshing and fun for me to make. Happy. Slim. Radical. They are in the shop now. Enjoy!

I’ve been squirreling away these fuschia and awesome ties waiting for the big love holiday. And these are HOT! Each is made from a necktie, so there’s only one available in the shop. And, in case you didn’t know, bow ties make ladies’ knees weak. It’s totally true.

wow you guys. Ya’ll kept me working during this last weekend. THANK YOU. It took me two and a half days to pack up all the orders- and I listened to Christmas music the whole time. So big hugs and high fives to everyone who acquired some new xoelle bow ties- they are happily making [...]

new bow ties are in the shop and lots and lots more are on the way. yipeee!

happyiest etsyversary to my little shop! Three years ago this very day I finally settled on a name and opened an etsy shop where I planned to sell lots of different things, bow ties among them. The bow tie pictured above is the very first bow tie I sold. This little shop has been an [...]

How cute are these two? They are so in love- as am I with the fact that I get to make bow ties for people to wear on such important and lovely days. Look! It’s on the cake topper too! Love love love. I’ve added these images to the gallery- keep sending them my way! [...]

I love love love getting photos from brides and grooms for whom I’ve done custom work. And, lookie what I got in the mail this week! These were a set of teal ties that I made with the attendants’ names screenprinted in silver on the side, and compasses screenprinted going off the end. The tipping [...]

I really didn’t plan on this happening. My last set of bow ties ended up being all matchy-matchy. I think it’s because several months ago I organized all of my “turn into bow ties someday” clothing into colors and so they happened to all be next to one another when it was time to make [...]

Just a little sample of the custom orders I’ve been working on this last month or so- all wedding except for the bow tie/cummerbund set, which was a prom set for a preppy football player. Lots more bow ties being added to the shop this week, and dozens more in progress. So, back to work [...]
