Sometimes it's easy, sometimes not.  We got to this bow and said, "Hmmm. . . ? 'Ladybugs on Grass'?"  Uninspiring at best.  We think one of you can do better.  Please leave us your name suggestion in the comments section.  If we choose a name that has duplicate entires, we'll award the bow to whomever posted first.   &lt;em&gt;If you are not a blogger, you may still enter. Just email your bow name and contact information to dawn @ love-me-knots.com (remove the spaces). Please note on your email that it is for the ladybug bow-naming contest.&lt;/em&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;We're a couple of stay-at-home moms who &lt;span style="font-style: italic;"&gt;really&lt;/span&gt; want to get our name out there and kick-off our web endeavor in a big way, so we're offering you another chance to win a bow, just by giving us a little exposure on your blog (this is also nice in case your creative juices just aren't flowing on the bow naming; we understand).  Here's how to get a second shot at winning our bow: Link to our contest on your blog and sign the Mr. Linky below.  Please put the link to your actual bow contest post, not your blog address.

My name is Melissa, and I began making hairbows and accessories for my daughter when she was 2-years-old – at the first sign of hair on her precious, bald little head! As a stay-at-home mom, I very much have enjoyed the creative outlet this has given me. My small business, Love-Me-Knots, has been growing for more than 3 years now. My Love-Me-Knots line has been showcased in 6 exclusive children’s boutiques and gift stores in the metro &lt;st1:place st="on"&gt;&lt;st1:city st="on"&gt;Atlanta&lt;/st1:city&gt;&lt;/st1:place&gt; area. I traveled to each location to create personal lines to fit the needs and personality of each individual store. Love-Me-Knots still maintains a presence in the &lt;st1:city st="on"&gt;&lt;st1:place st="on"&gt;Atlanta&lt;/st1:place&gt;&lt;/st1:city&gt; children’s boutique market; however, after the birth of my son, I realized the benefit of an online catalog of products that can reach more people. That’s when I began to collaborate with my friend Dawn, also a stay-at-home mom, who has become an integral part of the Love-Me-Knots online future through blog and web development.  &lt;p class="MsoNormal" style=""&gt;We cannot wait to meet each and every one of your hairbow needs! We are committed to making a high-quality product while offering you the best in customer service.
