bells n' whistles

I have seen a lot of people who make bows/korkers for pigtails. What do you attach them to? There is now way regular size pony o's would fit in my daughters thin hair. They look so cute and I want to try them but not sure how to do it.

I bought small pony o's made by Goody (I think) they came in multiple colors and are a ton smaller than the regular pony o's and would probably would work for up to a 2 - 2 1/2" *maybe* a 3" bow if it was light enough.
You could probably also attach them to smaller French clips. When I use those I always put DD's hair up with the little rubber bands and then go in just above those and put on the clip.

I had trouble at first, then I bought a box that REALLY helped.:3:

I make them for my Granddaughters and my daughters prefer them on the clippies. They say it is easier to get them lined up in their hair.
