Chic Bow Here’s a great way to make a fashion statement! For a tie-on bow you will need: ✽ Length of ½-inch wide ribbon (for the small bow) or ¾-inch wide ribbon (for
the large bow). The length depends on where you want to wear it (around your head, around your neck, around your ankle...) ✽ Another length of ribbon about 2 inches (for the small bow) or 3 inches (for
the large bow) ✽ Glue or glue stick, double-sided tape and regular tape ✽ A complete Dazzle On A Bow model
For a barrette, you will need: ✽ Your model ✽ A craft barrette (2¼ inches or smaller for the small bow, about 3 inches for the
large bow) instead of the length of ribbon ✽ A piece of card stock cut to ½ inch x 2 inches for the small bow and about ¾
inch x 3½ for the large bow ✽ Glue
To make a tie-on bow: 1. Flip the bow over and glue down the corners. 2. Separate the two triangular flaps on the back of the bow and center your ribbon along the square. Apply a little glue or double-sided tape to the square and press your ribbon to it. 3. Close the two triangular folds over the ribbon and secure them with tape. Be sure there are no sticky edges to catch in your hair or on your skin. 4. If you like your bow as it is, stop here. If you want a more finished look, take your small piece of ribbon and wrap it around the center with the ends overlapping a little on the back. This makes a pretty band. Secure with tape.
