Pinterest Project #1: Hair Bows!

Pinterest project #1 is now complete! I've been wanting to make a korker bow for Bailey for a while. It took some time to make, but I was very distracted throughout the process by my toddler, lunch, another crafting project, a trip to the store..... :0) It turned out super cute though!

Step 1:  wrap the ribbon around a dowel and pin or clip at the ends. Place these on a foil lined pan and bake in the oven.

Step #2 (ish?):  Cut the ribbon into smaller equal lengths, I think mine were around 3 1/2 inches each or so.

Step #3:  line an alligator clip with a matching ribbon.

Step # (well the rest of it):  It took me a while to get this part done. Different websites suggested different things. I tried to tie the pieces together but that just wasn't working out for me. So I heated up the trusty glue gun and just 'stuck' them all together. I think it works?

And last but not least, put it in Bailey's hair only to be ripped out within seconds. Someday this girl will appreciate good fashion, I just know it!!

My creation certainly isn't pinterest pin worthy, but I think it's cute. I just need to get a more willing model.... I will be hitting up Michael's soon to pick up more cute ribbon and create a few more!
