How to make an easy and fun bandana hair bow
Materials:
Bandanna
Alligator Hair Clip or Ponytail elastic
Large Bowdabra
Bowdabra Bow Wire
Scissors
Instructions:
First cut off one corner of the Bandana. Set aside for later. Next, fold both sides evenly until they meet in the middle.
Then, fold the two sides in half making sure the ends are even.
Now, cut a piece of Bowdabra bow wire. Then, fold it in half and insert it into the Bowdabra. You will have a loop on one side and two loose wires on the other side. This will serve as your slipknot. Tuck the ends under to stay out of the way while you are making your bow.
Next, find the center of the Bowdana and scrunch it into the Bowdabra. Then, fold to make a three-inch loop on each side. Scrunch everything down with the Bowdabra wand.
Insert the loose wires through the loop and pull tight while the bow is still in the Bowdabra. Then, remove the bow from the Bowdabra, separate the ends, turn to the back and tie a knot. Tie a double knot for extra security.
Now fold the raw edges of the cut off corner of the bandana and wrap it around the center of the hair bow and tie a knot. Insert an alligator clip through the knotted center. You have an easy-to-make and fun bandana hair bow!
