Learn how to make a hair bow with no wires or sewing @Design by Elisa
You can buy a collection of different colored ribbons so you can make an assortment of bows once you get the hang of it you probably won't want to stop at just one!
Welcome back to easy art and floral projects today we're going to make a two loop bow. This is what a two loop bow looks like: it's got a nice little knot in the middle and it's the same on both sides. So there is no backside. This is a great little bow to use to tie on packages cards or even glue a little hair bow bar right on the backside for a child's hair. So, let's get started for this project. You'Re gon na need some scissors, some double faced. Satin ribbon. This is called number three ribbon in the floral world or 2.7 millimeter width, but it's shiny on both sides. I'M gon na need a tape measure and I like to measure this out about 19 inches. I already cut mine but from front to back it's about 19 inches and that's about the length 19 to 20 inches, which you need for a loop to loop, both at size. So what is thatmy scissors aside? This is really easy to do. It doesn't take any tape or wires or needles and threads or anything, and it only takes about two minutes to make. You may have to watch this a few times to really get the hang of it, but once you do you'll be making a lot of bows. So, let's get started, we're gon na put the long end up above us away from us and the shorter end. It'S gon na be about three four inches and that's so we can allow for the tail whatever length tail you want. If you want a longer tail than what we have here, you just cut more ribbon, maybe 25, maybe 30 inches, and you can have a nice long streamer if he wanted to go down a child's back on her hair, who has really long hair or to tie It around a present so for now we're just gon na leave about four inches. Three four inches make a peace sign with your fingers. Do it again. All we need is two fingers and a thumb to make this bow so we're gon na brace it make it nice and firm and top with our little peace sign of our fingers and we're gon na pull under the index over the middle finger back through over The index that gives us two loops for that side of the bow and the back down or the middle finger. We'Re gon na grab on with our thumb right here to make sure it doesn't slip anywhere and then we're going to take this end and put it between these two fingers see where it's coming out. I pull it back through. Show you again it's going right through here and then you bring that end around and right through that little hoop, you see there and pull it through there. Take it out. The other end hold tight and that's starting to form the middle knot of your bow. We'Re just gon na see you saw this back and forth, so it's nice and firm, and now it's done, pull the other tail forward and pull it off your fingers. You
