Instructions

  1. Small 17611

    Cut about 6 inches of ribbon (or less depending on how big you want your bow to be.

  2. Small 17612

    Lightly burn the two ends of your ribbon (to prevent fraying). (Go back and forth really quick so that you dont burn your edges too much.)

  3. Small 17613

    Fold the two ends inwards so that they are overlapping each other. (Fold in however much you want in order to increase or decrease the size of your bow.)

  4. Small 17614

    Place a pin in the middle, to hold bow together.

  5. Small 17615

    Cut another piece of ribbon, about 4 inches. (bow looks best if this piece of ribbon is smaller in width.) *Burn edges lightly to prevent fraying.

  6. Small 17616

    Fold this ribbon inward also. (be sure that this piece is smaller in length than the other piece)

  7. Small 17617

    Place this ribbon on top of the other ribbon and pin it.

  8. Small 17618

    cut two pieces of another color of ribbon (about 1 1/2 inches) and seal edges by burning them.

  9. Small 17619

    pin these two pieces to the back,

  10. Small 17620

    Pick a button...

  13. Small 17623

    ta da!! you got yourself a bow (for your hair, buy clips and hot glue your bows on and then you can wear them in your hair !) *you can buy a pack of a 100 for like $5 at sally's beauty supply store. *the clips are alligator type i.e < *i usually hot glue ribbon on both sides so that the silver plates are more camoflauged. Hope you enjoyed!! (if you have any questions just message me and i'd be happy to help!)
