I always see these super cute gift bows whenever I go into my local party store. They're so eye catching and you can get them in so many colours that I knew I simply had to wear them. And then when I found these hair slides it was meant to be; those delicious colours were going in my hair and there was nothing anyone could do about it. They're super quick and easy to make so make one or a few and wear as many as you like.

You Will Need (5 things)

  • Gift Bows
  • Hair Clip(s)
  • Felt
  • Strong Glue
  • Needle And Thread

Steps (7 steps, 60 minutes)

  1. 1

    Most tags come with a little bit of paper on which is used to stick the bow to the parcel. Sadly the stickiness isn't strong enough so that little tag has to come off.

  2. 2

    Remove as much as possible until you are left with just the bow to work with.

  3. 3

    Take a small circle or rectangle of felt and cover it in glue.

  4. 4

    Stick your felt to your bow and leave to dry.

  5. 5

    Now prepare your hair slide. Run glue along the edge you want to stick your bow to. You might want to use a stronger glue for this job as plastic can be resistant to some weaker glues.

  6. 6

    Since hair slides are curved you with need to hold your bow for a while while it becomes tacky.

  7. 7

    After you glue has completely dried add a few stitches in place just to add extra security.
