How To Make A 5 Inch Ott Hair Bow Using Lalaloopsy Tinies (Let'S Make A Bow)

Okay, now I've got all my supplies laid out here and we're actually working with quite a few, for this particular load tutorial. If I'm going too fast and you can't keep up with the measurements, I'm going to leave all of the information that you'll need directly below this video right up under it, the descriptions box that will have all the measurements for each piece of ribbon that you're going To need and all of the other supply information. So don't worry about that because it's gon na be all down below alright. So we are working with 35 inches of this one and a half inch ribbon and I'm using two colors, I'm using a hot, pink and a yellow and using 35 pieces each. This is going to be for my face, bow I'm going to double later the ribbon. Alright, so you'll need two 35 inch pieces of one and a half inch for your base boat. I'M also working with strips of six inch ribbon. Various colors patterns prints just whatever matches the ribbon that you are working with, and this is going to be for the spikes I'm using ten pieces of six-inch ribbon for my spikes all right. So that's the spikes now for the surround a bow. Where is it I'm? Using actually four pieces of ribbon, I'm using this polka dot print is to be the the top, and you see how it's white on the bottom, I'm going to put another piece of ribbon, I'm gon na layer it just like. I did the base bow, I'm gon na double layer knots around about and since it's Lala loopsy, I'm going to make those two inner parts, different color, purple and yellow all right. So you're going to need four pieces of 15 inch. 7/8 inch ribbon, so you'll need four pieces because I'm double layering these surrounded boats, alright, so that is the surround the mousse alright, now for the topper, the main part I'm using this adorable Lalaloopsy print ribbon and I'm not really sure where I got this ribbon, I'm Going probably going to have some questions about it, I do know I got it from someone in ad stash group, some of their personal ribbon that they were selling. I don't actually think any store carries a Lalaloopsy print because of the copyright, but this is the ribbon. We are making it's this cute little longer loop see grant. This is gon na be for the top, where I'm going to do a twisted, boutique bow and I'm using 26 inches of my main ribbon, which is this Lalaloopsy print, also going to double layer. The top bow and I'm going to use this 7/8 inch green and white chevron print and we're just going to sing because the bottom is white. I don't think that's showing I'm just to layer the two ribbons together where the greens show and then the Lalaloopsy will show all right. So two pieces of 26 inch 7/8 inch ribbon and that is going to do it for our boat parts. Now I'm also going to be working with some quarter ribbon. I haven't really decided where I'm going to put the cork Aruban that I know I'm going to use it because this boat was supposed to be wild funky and just fun alright. So all I did was, I took some 3/8 inch ribbon in these colors prints and wrapped around these dowels put it in the oven at 300 for about 20 minutes and I've got poor Karev and I just need to take it off the dowels and if you Need any of these tutorials that we're going to be working with I'm also going to leave links down below alright. So that's what we are doing, corker ribbon and I'm just going to trim it up after I take it off the dowels, and I also made some of this curly organza ribbon, I'm not sure where or even if, I'm going to use it. But it's this cool blue color! All I did was I took this organza. I think it's like a 5/8 inch and I wrapped it around the dowels secure the ends with clothes pins and then I sprayed it with my must stiff and quick and just let it air dry. You do not want to put organza in the oven. Just you do not want to do that. Alright, so I've got two Corker ribbon. Curly ribbon. Also, I'm going to be using some embroidery. Floss some upholstery thread a needle who wants some belt. These are circles, but you can use any felt that you have, and these are just going to be for, like my tool or a Mirabeau, if I decide to put it in there, of course, you'll need some clips or barrettes. Also, I'm going to be using a hot, pink 3/8 inch ribbon, and this is going to be when I get ready to wrap my bow to the clip I'm going to line it. Twic 3/8 inch ribbon and then secure it with a great picture of it. Of course, you'll need your lighter for heat sealing your ends, your scissors, I'm using my stiff and quick love it you can use hairspray. Of course, you'll need your glue gun. Hopefully, it's not as ugly as mine, and I'm also going to be working with some of these cute and adorable Lalaloopsy tinies. Can you see chinese? These are adorable. They are going to go in the middle of our bow. You can get these at anywhere. That sells toys or even Lalaloopsy and they're called chinese Lalaloopsy tinies, and we recently did a review of them on the silly noggins channel the kids did and we love these things. Kennedy likes to play with them, they're about the same size as the shopkins. She loves them. The reason why I love them is because I can craft with them hello. Okay, let me show you that you sees a little hole, that is, that is at the top and at the bottom this means you can string this little guy or this little gal. Excuse me on a necklace. You don't even have to make her into a pendant. She can be a bead just string your wire right there and it goes all the way through. So I love it, but we're going to use one for the or boat today, alright, so Lalaloopsy tinies, I'm trying to think have. I forgot anything I might use this. This ruffle flower, I haven't, decided I'm also going to be working with tulle and marabou, but I don't have any here because I couldn't decide on the color but will decide that once we get to that point, go ahead and grab your supplies and let's get started And again, I am going to link a link down below in the descriptions box for all the tutorials that we are working with today. If I'm going just a little bit fast and you're like whoa, hold up just know that the links are down below alright. So we're going to take that one and a half inch pink and that one and a half inch yellow and what I did was seal the ends right here. Just a quick swipe of your lighter and I'm going to be layering and um. I never have any trouble with my ribbons coming apart once I fold it into bows, but if you want to, you can attach some fabric glue right here and then layer, the pink on top all right and I'm going to be using the twisted boutique tutorial. For this particular bow, I know a lot of you like the figure 8 tutorial and if that works, for you that's great do that you definitely want to do what's comfortable for you and what works and I'm just you know. This is just my go-to right here. Alright, what I do is I take and I fold my ribbon once and then twice. This is what it looks like and I'm going to put a little crease right here and basically, what this does. It just shows me where I should start my loops really up hello, hello, mister camera. There you go and basically I only need like one of these creases and then I just eyeball the rest all right. So once you unfold, it you'll see the creases hello quit doing that, you'll see the creases and that's just the first crease right here. That'S where I'm going to start because through my pink on the out all right, so I'm just going to form a loop. Ah, all right base, though, is complete. We can set this aside and start working on the other parts. Okay, the next part in this bow is going to be the spikes again. I'Ve got ten pieces of six-inch ribbon. This is 7/8 inch width by the way, and all I'm going to do is do the V cuts on all the ends, and I've already done these over here. So I'm going to go ahead and do the romaine for what I do is I just take the ribbon ribbon and I'll fold it in half. You want to make sure your ends line up and then I take my scissors and I just clip off the top. Like an angle and when you open it you'll have a big cut and then you can heat seal and go back to your business again. I use it in pieces, six-inch ribbon and they can be in any color pattern. You choose. These are just going to be something funky and fine per hour. Lalaloopsy bow all right, so go ahead and get the rest of your spikes ready, and we can continue on with the boat. Let'S see if they do some orange on the bottom and we're just going to be doing an X, do you see my X I'm coming at narrow like that right there? You don't want it too, odd to the end alright. So there is the start of my X and then I'm just going to simply layer the rest of my ribbons in this X formation just like so until I am done, and of course, if you see one is longer than the other, you can give it a Little tug and make sure everything is even and just continue this pattern until all of your pieces have been used again once you have all of your spikes in your exclamation here, I'm going to press the center and I'm going to pick everything up, be careful. You need to make sure you're holding that Center C. You want to make sure you're holding the center, and you can take a couple of these pinch Clips and right here in the middle, see right here. I'M going to attach just to pinch clips to hold my spikes together and we are going to sew right here in the center with your needle and thread. Okay and I have sewed from the bottom to the top, and I've got like four stitches just go in and out in and out until you are back at the top, and you want to hold your ribbon and we're just going to pull on this top ribbon. Cinch everything together and then we're going to take this remaining ribbon and wrap everything together and then tie off and you can go ahead and remove your clips right now. Okay and once your spikes are complete, we're going to set those aside with the base boat and we're gon na move on to the surround aboat and again, we are using four pieces of 15-inch ribbon, usually force around about. You only only need two pieces of the 15 inch ribbon, but we are double layering, so we're going to use four all right and the polka dot is going to be the outside, and this purple and yellow will be the inside they're just going to cover up That white back, because this is not double-sided. Okay, now these surrounded boat is complete. You want to make sure when you put these on top of each other, that your ribbons are lining up. You don't want it shifting one way or the other, but this is what it look like once it is complete. Now we can set it aside and get started on the last part, okay working with prints. If it's something like this, you know upset versus downside, you're gon na work, you're gon na have this facing down. When you form your first loop because remember we're gon na flip the bow, and then this will be on the top alright. So I'm gon na go ahead and form my first loop. Okay, guys, all four of my name boat parts are complete. We'Ve got that bass, the spikes the surround about in the topper. Now, what I'm going to do is I'm going to lay down a towel, preferably an older towel, that you don't use and I'm gon na spray each part with nice stiff and quick, just a few squirts each it's going to stiffen up your bow. You don't want to harm anyone good and crunchy, as I like to call it and when they are drying you go ahead and decide on the other parts to your over-the-top hair bow all righty. Our bow parts are completely dry. We sprayed them with this stiff and quick that I love so much now we are ready to assemble the bow again here is the base boat, I'm going to add glue secure. My spikes on top of my vase, bow more glue and then we're gon na put that surround a bow with the twisted boutique topper right there and we're going to sandwich everything together once I glue each part, I also go back and wrap everything with this embroidery. Floss, it just makes it more secure, so glue stack, secure and boom. We are almost finished now. We have to take this stacked, bow and transform it into an over-the-top bow, meaning we have to add all of our yummies and extra goodies to the bow. That is the fun part and the part that I always look forward to doing so I think I'm gon na take a tool puff and I put the curly organza ribbon. I just tied it in the middle. I think I'm gon na add this somehow to the top it kind of looks like Lalaloopsy hair. I don't know what do you think I don't know. Maybe I'm crazy all right and I also made some little corker clips they're, not Clips, there's just little puffs. I just secured like five or six three-inch corporate strips right in the middle with some thread, and I don't know thinking about maybe bunching them up and putting them on the sides. I don't know maybe I'll have to trim up some more. This is the fun part of it guys you can add as much or as little as you want to your bow, and this makes it over the top. I mean, if you want to add bling and bling. If you want to add crew. Fruit, add fruit fruit. I'M still wanting to use my roughly flower thing, but I don't know. Let me think, let me think alright, I've decided to use the tool puff right here at the top. So I'm going to add a little bit of glue right here at the bottom of my tool puff, and I am going to place it behind the top of my spikes up here and I want it to be in the middle, make sure we get down under Those spikes, so that's gon na go at the top and your spikes they're gon na cover up any of the felt alright, okay and I'm also going to be using my ruffle flower, but I'm not gon na use it in this flower shape. Here I'm gon na actually fold it where it's a little bit more, roughly and poofy, and I'm going to glue it at the top behind the spikes right here on the side. But I want it good and poufy where it puffs out like a flower. So I'm just gon na okay, here's what it looks like my little puffy flower right there at the top. Oh it's so adorable! It'S sticking out just as poofing. It'S like a poop ball! Alright! So now I'm going to use this blue organza and I am going to place the blue organza right in the center of my bow. You can't see it because of my fingers. Anyways, I'm going to place with a little hot glue right here in the center of the bow and then I'm going to wrap my entire bow to the clip. We'Re going to go ahead and wrap it to the clip. And then I'm going to insert my little tiny right on top I'm going to secure her, of course, her back to the middle of the bow, and then I'm going to use this to wrap it around the boat and tie it in the back. And hopefully it will stay on just a little bit more. I want to give it that extra secure, you know hold that we need - and let me remind you if you are working with any tiny pieces. Embellishments, toys, buttons bling, whatever definitely need to supervise your your little ones because they do put these in their mouths and it is a choking hazard. But of course, um Kennedy really doesn't keep bows on that long and so yeah. I think this is gon na be okay, but you know if you are selling. I would definitely be careful because you know I don't want you guys to get into any trouble. Alright, let's go ahead and attach this cutie to the boat.
