Hello readers and Pinterest fans!! My blog has moved from here to www.alittlemooreblog.com All new updates, tutorials and crafts can be found there!
Do you have a few scraps of ribbon left over from other craft projects? Well, if you have a little girl in your life then you can make these easy peasy Tuxedo Hair Bows. They are ridiculously easy and you can use up all of your scraps and have some sweet accessiories for your little one. Ready? Here we go!
Cut your scrap of ribbon. For 1.5 inch I like to make it 8 inches
“Heat Treat” the ends by running the flame on the fray
Make a loop and overlap the ends of the ribbon
Squeeze down to the center creating 2 loops
Crease the center in and the edges out
(that is the secret to the bow standing up and having shape, weak creases make flat bows)
Use your clip to clamp the crease
Use 24 gauge bead wire to secure your crease
Cut a piece smaller width ribbon to make your center knot
Loop your ribbon like an awareness ribbon
tuck the right side under your loop
Pull it through gently
Pull into a knot of desired tightness
(you will need to gently turn the ribbon on each side of the knot to make a clean and flat center)
Slide your clip in to the wire to secure it
use a tiny dab of hot glue on the bottom of your knot and apply
Secure the rest of the bow by using hot gluing the the rest of the knotted ribbon to the back and clipping off the excess of the ribbon neatly after glue dries
You are all done! Use these instructions to make all different sizes and to make the sweet Minnie Bow Clip like I made for our upcoming Disney Trip!
Enjoy and show me the bows that you make!

These are so cute Steph! Thanks for the great tutorial, I need step by step instructions to do anything and the pictures make it look so attainable. I wish I had a little girl to make bows for….I’m going to have to come up with some other use for them!
Love this! I actually have a a bucket of ribbons, most of which I only use in giftwrapping orders as I have no other use for them! LOL But this is a neat idea I’ll try! 🙂
i like this website.
Do you have any suggestions for making the same type of bow on barettes? Or bow ties for boys?
I love your site!
