“My inspiration is my daughter, as well as all these other mamas and their babes I’ve been able to connect with through my shop and the small shop

community” -Bettie Manchen, Owner

Pertie Berties Besties is a bow shop offering bow accessories for the whole family. From bow ties for the boys to all types of unique wrap and clip bows for the girls, to twist wraps for the moms, plus the occasional preorder for other types of accessories, Owner, Bettie, really had something for everyone. Her bows are well-made and so pretty! She uses unique fabrics and prints but also offers your everyday basics.

Bettie is inspired by the shop’s namesake, her daughter, as well as all the other sweet babes and their mamas who she has met along the way in her small shop

journey. Her daughter, Estelle Bertie, gave the shop it’s adorable name and gives Bettie a daily reason to continue creating some of the prettiest bows around.

There are many aspects of the job that shop owners enjoy but Bettie really loves seeing her products on all the beautiful babes and hearing how much their mamas love the products she makes. She really pours her heart into her pieces and it shows in the quality, consistency, and thoughtfulness presented in all of her items.

One of the more popular products offered by Pertie Berties Besties is the bloom style. These are offered in clip piggies and wraps. They are a gorgeous, multi-layered bow with the perfect amount of volume – truly unique and beautiful. This style is also Bettie’s favorite style to make!

Bettie hopes that her shop continues to have success to the point that she can eventually generate as much income with her small business as her better half, growing her name and expanding her shop beyond what it is today! Her goal is always to support her family and bring joy to her sweet Estelle. Estelle’s laughter and the photos that will allow Bettie to forever remember these sweet years are what really fill her heart with joy.
