Did I read this on CC or make it up in my head? Did someone make a PVC or wood dowel "tree" for drying bow loops? I have an idea of what it would look like but I was wondering if I imagined that I read about it here or really someone made one. If so, where is it? My search feature is being weird, I click next page and it says that my search did not yield any results.
Anyway, if it is here, can someone guide me to it? If not, well, I will post after I figure out how to make it (actually have my dad make it). Thanks!!
I saw it in the thread started by MadgeOwens about cake decorating clutter. Can't remember exactly how it's titled...something like "if you do this for a hobby..how do you organize your supplies." Hope this helps.
It was definitely here. I specifically remember someone's husband had made them one. It worked so well, they were making them for/selling them to people here.
Now if I could only specifically remember who it was... 
I've been searching MadgeOwens as well...beginnig to think maybe I'm wrong that she started the thread. I saw it on here like day before yesterday...and I know that it is in a thread about storing cake supplies in the home 
I read the thread about hobby bakers and storage and unless I missed something I did not see the bow tree in it. I have to admit, I am super excited that I am not the only one who saw this! I am almost positive that it was recently and maybe awhile ago too, before I made my first bow months ago.
I couldn't find the thread, but I think this is what you're looking for......

I bought one of these from Jaime Ann (is that her name?) and I just love it. I not only use it for drying bow loops, but I also use it for hanging my gumpaste flowers upside down. It also comes apart easily for easy storage. I wouldn't be without mine! 
This is so funny cause I was looking for that thread earlier tonight and I found it and here it is

Edited to fix grammar it's a thread not a threat lol
I got mine from Nicholas Lodge's website, but I think other places sell them.
Just wanted to show you what I dry my loops on. I bought two long dowels at Hobby Lobby. One is 1/2" and the other is 1" in diameter. There are two cabinets near my kitchen sink with a window between. The dowels fit perfectly up there and are out of my way. Total cost was $3 or less.

jamm jenks that's cool and so cost effective. I just went and purchased the pvc pipe and it can make a pretty large one for about 10. It was really easy it took me and my hubby about 30 min and that was using a hacksaw and with some readjustments.
I do something similar to Jammjenks. I flip 2 plastic cups over and tape the dowl to them. I leave it sitting on my counter while I cut the fondant/gumpaste and hang them right over. Cheap/easy and you can move them if needed (like if you were making bows for 35 table cakes and needed to have about 10 dowl-rods full of loops... all drying around the house)....
