I love making fabric hair bows. I love how versatile they are. I mean have you seen all the amazing cotton fabrics out there? Not to mention the organza, the silk, the denim, the felt. The list goes on and on. I also love how unique they are. Ribbon bows have been around for ages, but fabric flower clips are relatively new. So I've basically stuck with those. Not that I don't have a lot of ribbon. Because I do. Waaay to much for a normal person. I've just never used it very often to make hair bows.
Until yesterday. My cousin Tami came over for our weekly craft day. (Which I am loving!) She showed me a new method for making bows that I've never seen before. They are totally adorable. I pulled out some of my baby outfits and made bows specifically to match them. Here are a few we made:
Aren't all those layers fun!!
After she left, I decided to try my hand at the ribbon flowers. They were so much easier than I thought they would be! Most people add a button to the middle, but I decided to add a tiny yellow rosette.
Holey moley I love them!
Which one is your favorite?
I absolutely love the white flower…thank goodness Spring is just around the corner!
The white flower is soooo cute!!
I LOVE the daisy flowers! SO cute!
Love them all!!! i also made some pretty hair clips
The Ribbon Flowers are so adorable!
I love those! I really like the rosettes in the middle of the flowers. I have never seen them like that.
I also thought of a suggestion for your ribbons on etsy. Maybe you could offer some of them in sets of two–that is how I usually use them. Also if you had some pictures of someone wearing them that would help give an idea of the size. I pictured some of them being really big, but when I saw them at your house they were smaller than I expected. You have so many cute ideas!
I love the little ribbon flowers. I especially love the yellow rosettes. I have never tried that before, but I think I might have to now.
Can you give directions on how to make them all? I make all my little girls hair bows and I would love to learn how to make these for her. Thanks in advance
