You may not know Lynda King, but if you've ever seen a holiday car commercial featuring a giant, red bow, you know her work. As the founder of King Size Bows, she has been putting an unforgettable decorative touch on TV spots, grand openings and other special events since 2000.
King believes there is an unspoken message conveyed when a gift is wrapped with a beautiful bow.
"It says to the recipient, not only did I purchase this gift, but I am taking that extra, thoughtful step to wrap it up for you and make this presentation special," she said. "Sometimes, it's all about the bow!"

This his was King's thought when she wanted to surprise her daughter with a brand new car one Christmas. King searched everywhere for a big, red bow to put on top of the car. When she couldn't find one, she decided to create the bow herself. Her daughter's reaction to the bow was overwhelmingly positive. "There were tears, tears and more tears!" King said. "The car in the driveway was a huge surprise, but to see it wrapped with a big, red bow really completed the gift. My daughter drove around with the bow still attached to show all her friends, and it ended up on her bedroom wall as a memory of a very special day."
Years later, King, who had just sold another business she owned, was looking for a new entrepreneurial opportunity. After doing some research, she realized that there was still a gap in the market for large decorative bows. She founded King Size Bows as a way to fill that gap, and began working to design the perfect bow.

"It took many trials and errors, numerous experiments with materials, and a very long nine months before I came up with the exact size, design and fabrication of my Monarch bow," King told BusinessNewsDaily. "Now, 13 years later, it is still my best-selling bow by far."
