How to make a beautiful no-sew pinwheel hair bow

Hi everyone! I’m Joette from the Bowdabra Design Team, and today I’ll show you how to create a cute pinwheel hair bow that is so easy to make, so let’s get started!

Materials:

1 yard of 4” wide gross grain ribbon
10” 7/8” wide satin (non-wired) ribbon
Ponytail holder
Large Bowdabra
Bowdabra Bow Wire

Instructions

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 hair bow.

Next, using about a yard of fabric.  Cut the ends at an angle. Now, line up the pointed ends, folding in the center. (see video)

Once you get all the sections of ribbon even, find the center and scrunch it in the center.

Then bring it to the Bowdabra and scrunch it down. You can adjust the pinwheel shape right in the Bowdabra.

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 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.

Use a small piece of matching ribbon to wrap around the center of the bow, and use the excess ribbon to tie the no-sew pinwheel hair bow to the ponytail holder.
