I'm sure they will love the outfits. If you have a Goodwill or second hand shop, you can look for bow ties there and rob the hardware from them. I have done that before for ties and bras. It was cheaper to buy it and take it apart than it was to buy the repair kits.

I know you want to make them but in a small town and this close to Christmas your best bet might be to buy the boys red bow ties at Walmart- or buy their cheapest ones to get the hardware you need. There are online sources but you wouldn't get them in time.
