No Sew, Glam Diamond Hair Bow Tutorial. How To Make Hair Bows. Diy Laços De Fita:

Hey guys welcome back to my channel, i've got my favorite ribbon out today, and i say this is my favorite, because i just think this is an essential to have when you make ribbon bows. That is a polyester ribbon. That has got a really nice thickness to it or stiffness. Should i say so when you're making the bows that holds a really nice shape. It'S not flimsy. It'S not like a satin ribbon, it's more stiffer than a satin ribbon and it's double-sided, which just means everything to have a double-sided ribbon. So when you're making bows which show the inside, you don't have to line these with anything, but they also do make a really nice lining for bows as well. So if you've got a patterned ribbon, you can use that with these and line up with this. So you've got a bit of shimmer on the inside. It'S just one of my definite must-have ribbons. I'Ve already cut my ribbon and got everything out what i need. You'Ll need a hot glue gun your ribbon. Obviously, a lighter a hair clip of your choice or an elastic or a headband, whichever you prefer some nice, some good fabric scissors and i've got these ribbon sliders and the ribbon sliders have got the bar going across diagonally, so they're a diamond shape and the reason I'Ve chosen these is because the bow we're going to make has got like diamond shaped loops, and this goes so well with it, and i got these from aliexpress. I got the ribbon from aliexpress. I will link everything that i've used in the description below this video. So you can check those out all my pieces of ribbon cut here. I'Ve got four pieces. These three are for the main part of the bow, and then this piece i've cut off, and this is going to be used to wrap my hair clip and also to wrap around the center and the reason i'm using. This is because i don't have any one centimeter wide in this matching ribbon, so this is what i do. I just cut off a piece. This is actually 11 and a half centimeters long, and what i will do is i'll cut off a strip to wrap around my clip and then another strip to wrap around the center. You'Ll. See that when we get to it, but i'm going to just set that piece aside for now, so these parts for the main part of the bow four centimeter wide ribbon or one and a half inch wide and that is cut to six and a quarter inches. Roughly or 16 centimeters in length - and that is two pieces and then this piece is for the base bow again. It'S the same width, four centimeters or one and a half inches, and this is cut to 25 centimeters in length or just under 10 inches in length, and that is for the base bow. So we'll start off with the base bow i'm not going to heat seal. The ends yet because we'll cut them last so taking your longer piece for the base bow you want to fold both the ends under like that. So you've got like this sort of z shape and then you can slide these tails, so you want to slide them. So that you've got around a centimeter and a half overlap on either end i'll. Just do this by eye now, like i said, we're doing a no-sew bow today, so i'm going to make the base bow without sewing it as well. Normally, i would sew across here to put my pinch in, but i know some of you are not really up for sewing, so we're just going to make this completely a no-sew hair bow so once you've lined these up and you've got you're happy that you've got The same little bit of overlap around a centimeter and a half, you want to just fold that up in half just roughly just you can find that center. Give that a squeeze. So that makes a crease in there like this. So to make the pinch. First of all, you want to fold the middle down and then bring both sides down like this and then we're going to come up next to that and then back down and then on this side, you're going to come up and down and then up and down Again, so you've got that pinch in the middle there like that, and then taking your piece of thread place that, under your thumb, keeping that pinched so that you don't lose your pinch that you've just put in there leaving a tail long enough to tie off. Taking that over that center, then i'll just pop it down on my desk, move my fingers over, so that i can just wrap that around the center and then pull that tight and then just simply tie a knot and that will hold that into place. That does take a little bit of practice getting those pinches in by hand that doesn't happen overnight. Like i remember when i first started doing pinches by hand, i could never quite get it right. The most important thing to remember is that when these sides finish, you always best to have them finish and folding downwards, rather than upwards, because they just look nicer. So that is a good thing to try to remember and just keep practicing really just keep practicing on the pinch by hand, and that is why i sew now really, even though i can do the pinches by hand, i just find it easier to sew. Now i used to think - oh god, no, i don't want to sew, i don't like sewing, but i've gotten so used to that way of doing it now that that is just how i prefer to do it, but i just wanted to show you how to do This today, obviously by hand, so that is our single pinwheel. I'M not going to cut these. Yet i like to do that last when we've got the bow fully made up, so we can set this aside, and now we can make the top part of our bow. The lovely diamond shaped loops, so taking one of your pieces this time we will heat seal the ends. There'S another thing i like about this ribbon, even though it's polyester, sometimes these sort of ribbons melt easily with the lighter flame, but this one that that does take the heat really well. That is just a really nice solid ribbon. So, first of all we're going to fold it in half to find the center i'm just going to fold it in half and then give that a little pinch mark a crease where the center is and then we're going to fold the sides in to the center. So it looks like that and then we're going to fold this corner upwards to the middle, also that pinched in place and then we're going to fold the other side up to the center. So now you've got this triangle shape like that, and now i'm just going to flip this over keeping that all pinched into place and next we're going to bring these corners up to this top corner. And then i'm just going to snip off that little point that you've got there, i'm just going to snip that off and then use my lighter just to heat seal that again give it a pinch and that will help to bond those ends together. So that does hold together, like this just to be safe, i'm going to pop a little clip on there, and that is what you've got from the front now this is going to be the top of the bow. You'Ve got this lovely sort of little open bit with these layers showing, and that is what you want so we're going to pop that down and we're going to repeat that same steps, all of those same steps on the other half so so it looks like this And now we're ready to glue the two halves together. So i'm just going to pop some hot glue on this inner edge pop that clip off and push those two halves together, just going to hold them there to make sure that they bond nicely and as you can see, you've got this gorgeous diamond shape and then It'S ready to layer on top of our base bow, so this is what we've got now so popping some glue across the center of our base bow. I use this is the center these two edges here, so i line this up so that my points are at these edges here. So this is what we've got now and now we can cut our ribbon to line our clip and then wrap it around our center and then we're going to add our lovely diamond ribbon slider on there, as well so cut and strip off around a centimeter wide And this first strip is going to be to line our hair clip and then cutting another strip off again around a centimeter wide, and that is going to be to wrap around our center. And then, what i like to do is on this off cut is just to heat seal around the edge and then set it aside, and then you've always got this bit to use another time. If you need it to wrap around the center of a bow or, like i said, to line a hair clip now one of these pieces, you only need to heat seal one more edge. There'S this one. This one's already got the bonded edge, so we just need to heat seal the side that we cut off and on this one we need to heat seal all the way around. So it came from the middle of the ribbon, so we're going to line our clip. First, so i'm just going to place some hot glue just under halfway pop that on the underside of the clip, push it into the pinch part. And then i'm not going to be glue in this part. Because when i pop the glue on this, that will hold that piece down anyway, so open the clip pop that down into there and as you can see, that 11 11 11 half centimeters is perfect for lining a 45 millimeter clip like this. So that is now lined we'll place that on the bottom of our bow again, i use this line through the middle as a guide to make sure i'm getting the clip on there straight and then add our center piece. So i'm going to place some glue on one end pop that just under the clip in the center, so i'm going by eye making sure that's in the center of the bow make sure they're stuck down before you start pulling up to wrap around the center. You don't want it to come loose and then i'm just going to start bringing that around the center of my bow. I am going to place a little bit of glue here and that will just help to ensure that this bow at the top here keeps together. It should do anyway, but i just like to add a little bit of extra glue for security, and then i like to go around twice. So this is the second time round, and this is where we need to add our ribbon slider. So, with this bit loose still, you go in through the top of the ribbon slider and then back down out through the bottom, and then you can just slide that to the center of the bow and then give them that pull to make sure. That'S tight trim off any excess ribbon heat seal that raw edge and then just take that underneath the clip to finish it off, and we just need to cut our tails on this part. So i like to keep it long from this end and then go shorter. So from this outer edge curl it round making sure you don't cut your loop and then heat seal that edge and then the same with the other side, and that is your finished diamond loop. Hair bow with ribbon slider in the center. I'Ve made some of these. In other colors, i've got a black one here, and i've got this sort of pale pink with the gold slider, because each of these ribbons have got a different sort of flash of foil shimmer through it, and these ones had silver. So i use the silver slider. This one has the gold shimmer, so i use the gold. I am definitely going to order some more colors in this ribbon because it's just so pretty.
