Bows

Bows

More hair ties!!!! They are the easiest things to make. And frankly, its the only thing I can make with the supplies I have. :/ Bows are super easy to make, if you aren’t a flower person these are a great alternative.

Materials

  • two different fabrics (I recommend one pattern and one solid)
  • scissors
  • thread
  • hot glue gun
  • starch (optional)
  • hair tie/clip
  • Sewing machine (optional)

One of my favorite bloggers posted a great version of  hair bows.

You will need two rectangles of fabric to construct the bow and then one thinner piece for the middle part. The two hair tie bows  measure 6 X 3.5 the hair clip one measures 8 X 3.5. But just play with different sizes, I would recommend starching the fabric the larger you make the bow.  (and be careful using the hot glue gun)

Next time I plan to update with something more creative. >.<

Things you will need:

  • Hot glue gun
  • fake flowers
  • hair tie
  • or clip
  • or hair band
  • matching felt or fabric
  • Scissors
  • bobby pin

Just pick the type of clip or hair band or tie whatever you like using the most and grab your trusty glue gun and have at it. Just be very careful when using your glue gun because I’ve burned myself sooooo many times. So please be careful. For some, it might be difficult to glue the flower/leaf to the clip so I use felt as a base. Its easy to hide and it holds.

Clips

I plan to make a how to video for this entry too. I just take my time. >.< Sorry about that. I still owe one for my last entry as well.  Look forward to that and to the next entry. :3
