Watch and learn how to make a new patriotic hair bow in just a few minutes with Bowdabra. Sandy Sandler, the creator of the Bowdabra shows you how easy it is to make this hair bow. It is so easy you will want to make several for gifts. So let’s get started!
10″ Velvet Glitter Ribbon – Sapphire 5/8″
3 Corkers
8″ Princess Glitter Ribbon
First, 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, take a piece of patriotic ribbon and fold it in half to find the center. Then, make a mountain-up crease and scrunch it in the Mini Bowdabra. This technique makes a perfect crease so there is no sewing involved.
Now, fold across the other side and bring the tail up in the shape of a pinwheel.
Next, place in the sparkle ribbon pieces. Then lay in the three corker ribbons.
Now, scrunch everything down with the Bowdabra wand. Then, insert the loose wires through the loop and pull tight while the bow is still in the Mini 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.
Finally, shape and arrange the bow. To finish, take a ponytail elastic and use the excess wire to tie it to the new patriotic hair bow. Shape and arrange your bow. Now, take some red sparkle ribbon bring it around the front and to the back and tie it in a knot. Clip off the excess ribbon.
Wasn’t this an amazing bow? And the best part is that it took just a few minutes to make!
