“One thing that totally sets KJS Creations apart from other leather and glitter bow shops is her option for completely custom bows!” -Cassondra Shulenburg,
Owner
KJS Creations is a unique, handmade bow shop that you definitely need to check out!
In less than 5 years, owner Cassondra Shulenburg, has built a devoted following of over two thousand customers who allow her unique bows to sell out within minutes of becoming available. KJS has one large drop per month containing 15-24 different style glitter or printed leather bows. These bows are available in limited quantities and are very sought after by loyal customers as well as a devoted and obsessed rep team.

One thing that totally sets KJS Creations apart from other leather and glitter bow shops is her option for completely
custom bows! Her bows are already hand-painted, hand-cut, and hand-assembled, but she also offers one-of-a-kind, made-to-order custom bows. These custom “spots’ are
also made available monthly and are Cassondra’s favorite part of having her shop! They are truly little pieces of art!
Although all these unique offerings are what set KJS Creations apart, you can also find over 1000 ready-to- ship options on their site at any time. Not to mention Cassondra’s customer service is second to none. She strives to treat each customer like she would want to be treated herself.
In the early days, Cassondra’s goal was simply to create
sparkly hair bows. Since then, the shop has become so much more – a place for mothers to come together over discussions of life and motherhood where there is no
judgment and lots of beautiful babes in sparkly bows! It’s a common theme in the small shop world for shop owners to want to create this welcoming and safe environment but KJS Creations is proof that some shops really do achieve this atmosphere while offering unique fashions for tiny beauties. Cassondra has gained so much more than just a shop, she has met amazing women and developed wonderful relationships along the way.
As a mother, Cassondra was inspired to open her shop by her daughter. After all, the shop’s name is her daughter’s initials! Cassondra explained, “When my daughter was born, I became obsessed with bows. But I learned she could destroy the ribbon bow in two seconds flat. So I set out to find a fabric that could withstand little hands and anything else my little girl could throw its way.” Cassondra landed on the leather and glitter bows she offers today! She also finds inspiration in the simplicity of everyday life!
The community created by this wonderful little shop is one that every girl mom should join. While customers will find a variety of hair accessories available for purchase, there have also been sightings of Cassondra’s infamous cat, of whom she is unashamedly fond.
