What You'll Need
Fabric
Scissors
Bobby Pin
Glue Gun (or a needle and thread)
The size of fabric depends on how big or small you want your bow to be.
Fold the fabric over about 2 inches, then fold it again so it is 3 layers thick.
Glue or sew it down and cut off the extra.
Fold in each side to the center, overlapping one side over the other so you can glue or sew it in place.
"Scrunch" the fabric in the center, making three little folds. Glue a little dot in between each fold so they stay in place or sew them together.
With the extra fabric make another strip the same way you made the first one, by folding it twice. This time make the strip about 1/2 an inch wide. Glue or sew it in place.
Use this skinny strip to wrap around the center of the bow. You will have to cut away the extra fabric, and glue it in place or sew it down.
Slide your bobby pin through the center strip on the back of the bow.

addicting, aren't they?

Super cute!!

How long and wide did you cut the material?
*fabric
It depends on how large you want the bow to be. For this one the fabric was roughly 3 inches wide and about 5 inches long. It really has a lot to do with eyeing it though. Sorry I can't be more specific!
Okay, I am planning on making a bunch so I guess they may be different every time :) Thank you!! :D
What a great idea for summer! Clever and cute!
Thank you :-)
This is really easy looking, I love it! A little tip, the wavy side of the bobby pin should be under your hair and the flat part should be on top. It holds the hair better. :)
Anyways, I'm definitely going to be trying this soon.
Yes! I just discovered that a few weeks ago- my world suddenly made so much more sense haha
