Instructions for Making the Hair Bow

  1. To begin, cut the ribbon to length. Cut an angle on one end of one of the 10″ lengths. Quickly pass the ribbon ends through a flame since it will seal the ribbon.Cut Angle on One Ribbon
  2. Next, fold the bow wire in half and put in the Mini Bowdabra. Then, tuck the ends of the wire under the Mini Bowdabra to keep them out of the way.Wire in Mini Bowdabra
  3. Then, layer one end of each length of ribbon in the Mini Bowdabra with the ribbon face down. Begin with a length of ribbon at the top right, move to the top left, bottom left, and finally, bottom right. The bottom right ribbon is the length with the angle cut, and the flat end goes in the Mini Bowdabra now.Layer Ribbons in Mini Bowdabra
