About us

Jenny, Shayna, and Hopey.

Greenville Golden Bows is a home studio in Greenville, South Carolina. Jenny cuts and sews every bow tie, sailor bow, and headband by hand. Shayna and Hopey — the goldens who started it — still do quality control on the walks around the block. Shayna is the darker golden; Hopey is the lighter one.

Why we started

Jenny started sewing after dressing Shayna and Hopey and realizing how hard it was to find a bow that stayed put, felt soft, and looked like it belonged on a regular Tuesday. The brief has not changed: a comfortable fit, fabric worth touching, and a look that works for the whole pack.

Every piece is still sewn by hand in small batches. Bow ties and sailor bows slip onto the collar with an elastic band. Headbands are one size, with a black or white band. Nothing fancy — just a bow that looks like it belongs.

What we make

We work in cotton-blend fabrics — gingham, tartan, floral, and seasonal prints — and keep the lineup small so each style gets proper attention. Collar bows run small, medium, and large. Headbands are one size.

If you need a hand picking a size, or want a matching set for siblings, we are always happy to hear from you.
