So what you're going to need for this tutorial is just the faux leather. Your glue gun and some scissors I have partnered with pretty and pink supply for this tutorial. They gave me the leather to make these bows if you missed. My last bow tutorial go check it out because they, I also partnered with them in that one and they have the cutest prints. So they have fabric sheets of all different kinds and prints, and they are amazing. They are the best price I will link them below, but anyway, so to start, we are gon na start with this green one. Okay, so I just took my sheet my full sheet and I cut a strip at an inch and a half wide because that's how wide they are and then I cut them into smaller little pieces to make the bow. So the first piece is five inches or four and a half inches and then the second piece is three inches and I cut those ends at a diagonal like you can see, and then the center piece is a half an inch wide. I'M not sure how long it was and then I just tied it in a knot. So what you're gon na want to do is take the longest piece and fold it so that the edges meet in the middle and then you're gon na grab your glue, gun and just put a strip of hot glue right down the middle and glue those pieces. In place right in the center, then you're gon na grab your glue gun again and you're gon na put a strip of hot glue down the center of the piece. That'S cut diagonally and stick your folded piece right on top try and make it even make. This theme in the back right on the glue and then you're gon na fold it so I always start by folding it down. Then up then down like so then I'm gon na grab the centerpiece and I'm gon na make sure that it's flipped over. So I'm looking at the backside of it, I'm gon na flip my bow over, so I'm looking at the backside of it and then wrap the centerpiece around try and make sure that the knot is right in the center. It took me a few times to get it perfect, but once you do get it you're, just gon na wrap one side all the way up and around make sure it's in the center that time it wasn't in the center. So we're gon na try. Third time's a charm right, so you make sure it's right in the middle of the bow wrap one side, all the way around then put a little dab of glue on the other side and glue it in place. Now the hot glue doesn't like to stick to the leather very well, so you have to hold it for longer than normal to make sure that it stays glued, but there you go. There is the end result of this bow. I love it. You could do it without the knot in the center. You could just do a regular strip without tie the knot, but I think it looks so cute, then you can just add a clip to the back or attach it to like an elastic or something like that. Okay, moving on to the next bow again, I just grabbed my sheet of fabric. I laid my ruler on and I cut this one's two inches and then I cut it directly in half, so the sheets come like the same sizes of paper. So it's like four and a half inches or five inches, so it's two inches by four and a half inches and then I just curved the edges and I just cut them kind of in a circle. So it's like a big long oval and then it's time to fold the bow again, just like an accordion down then up then down then grab your centerpiece. This can be out of the same type of leather or you could get like a different color. To add some pop, whatever it's a half an inch wide by, however long you want it to be so you're just going to fold it around, put some glue on it and then glue it in place and cut off the excess and you're done with this one. This one I had to add extra glue to because it just would not stay, but I love this bow. It'S so cute and easy. I'Ve seen them everywhere and they're super simple to make. So here we go the finished product, it is so fun. I love the print of this one anyway, now on to the pink one, so this one uses a template. I will leave the description, a link in the description below where I got it, so I just laid the template out on the back of the leather and cut it out, and this one I'm going to attach to like a hair tie. You can do a clip or whatever you want, but you just slide one side into the hair tie and then tie it in a knot. So you're tying it around the hair tie and the leather is pretty stretchy. If you trace the template on the right side of it, of course, I'd accidentally traced it on the other side, where it's not that stretchy. So I have to pull on it quite a bit, but you just pull and tug until it looks about like what you want it to, and that is it for this bow. This one might be one of my favorites because it's just simple and it's on a hair tie, so it just adds like a little cute, bow to your bun or, however, you have your hair pulled up, but anyways there we have it. We have finished three simple leather bows again. I will link pretty-in-pink supply where I got my leather from below. They are amazing, they have the cutest patterns and everything that coordinates with it and everything. If you are new up, please consider subscribing.
