DIY ribbon bows

To decorate your hairstyle with long hair, you can make bows from ribbons with your own hands. To make beautiful bows you will need satin ribbons, a needle and thread, hair bands and bright large beads. Ribbons 2.5 cm wide will need to be cut into 5 cm pieces, and the edges of the ribbons should be scorched with a lighter to prevent them from unraveling.

Then pull the thread and tie a knot. It turns out to be such a preparation. Sharp corners can be carefully trimmed with scissors and lightly burned with a lighter.

To make bows from ribbons, you need to prepare eight such blanks for each bow. Then all the petals are stitched sequentially to each other and connected into a circle.

The next step is to make a rosette onto which the flower will be sewn. To do this, strips 1.2 cm wide need to be cut into pieces 18 cm long and the sections scorched with a lighter. For two bows you will need 8 pieces of ribbon.

For the socket, it is better to take ribbons of different colors, either similar or contrasting shades. Each ribbon needs to be folded into a figure eight and stitched in the middle.

The second bow is made in the same way as the first. Making your own satin bows is quite simple. Two identical bows look great in a schoolgirl's hairstyle.

Such bows can be glued to a hairband or an automatic hairpin - it all depends on desire and imagination.

    Not very nice. Not straight and not neat.
