Twisted Boutique Bow With Double Loops... How To Make Hair Bows. Bows Tutorial Laços De Fita:

Hello, my lovelies today, i'm going to show you how to make a twisted boutique bow with the double loops. So, first of all, i've measured out my ribbon, i'm using four pieces, i'm using three in a solid color and one in this baby, blue rainbow and unicorn pattern ribbon. So the first piece this is actually 38 millimeter wide. But if you want to use a 44 40 millimeter wide, that would work also - and i've cut this first piece to 20 centimeters in length, and the second piece is cut to 25 centimeters in length and these last two pieces. I'Ve actually doubled these up and i've used a lighter and i've just pinched this to heat seal it together, and this is also a 38 millimeter wide, and this is cut to 65 centimeters in length and that's both pieces sealed now. I'M just going to set these two aside for a moment. So, first of all, we want to make our twisted boutique bow shape. So to do this, we're going to flip our ribbon this way, so that the solid color is on the in on the upper side, and the patterned ribbon is underneath you're going to fold that in half and just mark where that center is i'm going to use A lighter just to heat that ribbon up and get a crease in there like that. Now, next you're going to take this right hand, side you're, going to bring it over and then twist this round. I'M just going to mark the halfway mark on this piece as well on this end and then as you've bought this round, making sure that's in line you're going to line this crease up with this crease that you've just made and lay that, on the top of There, like that, making sure that they're straight horizontal this way, then taking a pin or a needle just going to pin all of those pieces together now note that i've put my pin in this side because we're going to fold this over in a minute. So i put my pins here so i can still fold over. Otherwise the pins will be in the way i'm keeping my finger here just to hold it, because obviously that might still move a little bit. So i'm keeping my finger there to hold that in place and then taking the left side you're going to bring that round the opposite direction and then you're going to line that up with this piece here and this line here this raw edge. You want it in line with this once you're happy. That'S all straight! I'M going to take another pin this side through all of those layers and then i'm going to take this one out that through there. So this is what we've got now now. This is why i put the pins here, because next you want to fold this up and if you have the pins this way, obviously you won't be able to fold it because they'd be in the way. So you want to fold this up, and this is so. We can mark the halfway mark on these two pieces, so i'm going to do this side. First, i'm going to just push that down and then, where that's folded, i'm gon na take a lighter, just get a crease in there as a guide and then do the same with the left side. And then i'm also just gon na make a crease in this bottom part. So this is what we've got now. This figure of eight shape next we're going to take our longer piece, our 25 centimeter piece of ribbon and we're going to fold this in half and again we're going to mark our center and then we're going to lay this. I'M going to turn this over and we're going to lay this on here using this crease that we've just made along this bottom here. Lay this on here, making sure you've got the same distance, this side and this side you can do that by eye. You don't need to measure and then taking another pin, i'm just going to pin that into place like that, and then you can turn that back over and then we're just going slightly overlap this edge and just heat seal that so i've just pinched them sides together And next we're going to bring this down and we're going to line up where we've drawn this together, so you've slightly overlapped it. So just above this line is the halfway mark i'll just fold it. So you can see that so about. There is actually the halfway, because we've slightly overlapped it and we're going to line that up with our crease again that we made in this bottom part. I'M just going to pick that up once i'm happy that that's lined up. You can then take your pins out from this side, keeping this pinched tightly and we're going to pop that in this side instead like that - and this one also so that's all held into place. So this is what you've got now next we're going to bring the sides in so again using these creases that we've already made we're going to bring this inwards, making sure that that ribbon is lined up and you're going to line this crease up with this crease Across the center and this crease up with where this meets and this edge is lined up with where this meets, so it's like that, so, as you can see, this is lined up with this crease, and this is lined up where this meets here. This line, and once you're happy with that, i'm just going to take a clip, i'm just going to clip that into place and then we're going to do the same with the other side. We'Re going to bring this side in and again use this as a guide line. This crease up with this side and line this crease up with where this ribbon meets, making sure that that's straight, you don't want it like this or like this. You want it dead straight again, taking a couple of clips, i'm just gon na clip that into place, so this is what you've got now. This is what it looks like on this side, and this is what it looks like on the other side and now we're ready to stitch through our center. So i'm just going to get needle and cotton. So the thread that i'm using today that's an extra strength thread. So that's nice and strong to make our pinch. So i'm going to start by going in through this side, where this overlaps in this corner one and then we're going to come up just next to where that pink. It is two and then we're going to go in at the edge of this pink bit. Three. Four five: six seven eight coming out just at the edge of this pink bit and then we're going to do two more in there and then you're going to come out where that last piece overlaps and then we can remove all of our clips and pins. So they're all removed, and now we can pull this tight to create that pinch in the middle there, and this is what you've got so far, i'm just going to fluff that out a little bit. So this is what we've got so far. Next taken our 20 millimeter wide ribbon: they're 20 mm 20 centimeter. So this is the 20 centimeter piece of ribbon, we're just going to make sure we've heat sealed these ends, i'm going to fold it in half to mark our halfway point and then i'm just going to slightly overlap those edges and i'm just going to melt those Sides to bond them together and hold that in place before we stitch it. So you've got this loop, so taking another piece of thread and a needle we're going to bring this crease in with where you've joined it line it up so sort of halfway in the middle of where you've joined it the crease and then we're going to sew. Six stitches going in from the outer edge one two, three four five and the final one coming up through that edge six and then you can pull that tight do, and this will be your top loop. So now we're ready to glue this onto the top. So i'm taking a hot glue gun place a piece of hot glue into the middle of that bow just line that up in the center. So this is what we've got now so now we're ready to add a clip and our centerpiece all right. So i've partially lined a clip. I'Ve just left this little bit out. You'Ll see why, when i get to it, this clip is a 75 millimeter hair clip and that's a toothed clip you can use. Whichever clips, you prefer, i'm just gon na pop some glue along the top there and attach that to the underside of my bow and for the centerpiece. I'Ve cut a piece of ribbon from the matching ribbon and i'm going to use this little pearl center piece that i made on felt the other day and i'm going to glue that onto there. So i'm just going to take some glue pop it on the back of this felt, making sure that's all covered, and then i'm carefully going to stick it to this piece of ribbon like that. That is why sometimes it's good to make these pearl sort of center pieces on a piece of felt, but you can stick that to any color ribbon that don't really show that that's on felt. I have done a tutorial for this. If you look in my videos, that was actually the last video i uploaded, so you want to see how to make these. That is on there right next we're going to line this up in the middle. So again, i'm going to pop some glue underneath where those pearls are and i'm going to line that up in the middle making sure i'm covering up all of that stitching like that and then bringing these pieces round, i'm going to trim off the excess ribbon. You just need enough to wrap around that clip and then we need to heat seal these ends, but we've just cut and placing some glue on there wrap that around the clip and on this last piece of ribbon that we've left hanging there, i'm going to pop Some glue all the way down there open up our clip and tuck that right down over the top of that center piece, what we've just wrapped around. So that's what it looks like at the bottom and i'm just going to make sure that the ends of this is stuck right down where that's just curled around. Let'S come up a bit at the side. Push that felt down into the glue felt sticks brilliantly with hot glue, which is why i like to use felt for these. That'S why it's already done well, and then you can just fluff up your bow again and there you have your twisted boutique to boutique bow with double loops.
