bow-stravaganza!!

I was bored the other night...so I decided to take out my trusty sidekick -- ribbons, buttons, felt, etc.  I just love the smell of hot glue in the evening! 

  

I decided to take some of my cream ribbon I got at the dollar store -- yes they sell ribbon at the dollar store - look around! 

I cut it into pieces - approximately 6 inches long


I cut 9 of these and then glued the ends together 


Cut a circle of felt and start to glue the ribbon onto it




I decided to take my vintage buttons and glue one in the middle, and also take some beading and go around the button 




Flip it over and glue on a strip of felt - glue on both sides so you leave the middle open. Also glue on a pin so it can be worn on a jacket or shirt.


The reason for the felt is so that you can slide in a bobby pin or a headband and wear it 



I made a few different designs. 



Now go make some bows!!
