This bow is approximately 4.5" wide. It is made from 3 layers of ribbon and a layer of white marabou. The features (ears, nose, feet) are embroidered on white felt and there is a pom pom for the tail. Side: Please indicate if the bow will be worn on the right or the left side of the child's head. Why? The bow will be upside down if you put your child's hair back to one side and you order the wrong side. If you are simply wearing the bow above a ponytail, then the side doesn't matter. If you pull her hair back to HER right, then you need a right bow, etc. It can be mounted on a large (3") french barrette OR a partially lined alligator clip. All my bows are heat sealed for NO FRAYING! All items come from a smoke-free home.
