Quick, Easy Hair Bow

Once in a while I can't find a hairbow to match one of the girls outfits, at the last second. And I don't want to fuss with getting out thread and the glue gun.  That's when I pull out a color matching spool or piece of ribbon and whip up a new bow.


Supplies:

Ribbon
Scissors
Bobby-pin
Fray-Check


Directions:

Take the ribbon and tie it in a bow, just like the second step of shoe tying, but don't do the first step of shoe tying--skip that and go straight to the bow.  Tighten the middle.  Even the loops. Cut the tails, even lengths, at an angle.  Fray-check the cut ends, if desired. Push bobby-pin through back side of the bows 'knot'.  

Happy wearing.
