I created a set of hair bows for my nieces using some Bo Bunny ribbon, flowers and bling. I was able to get this photo of my youngest niece wearing one of them. Sometimes she doesn't hold still for very long! LOL!!!
Here is the set I created to match various outfits of my nieces. If you are interested in how to create some of these yourself, you will find a photo tutorial below.
Ribbon Hair Bow Tutorial

Start with the 2 largest flowers. Rotate them to offset the petals and hot glue them together
Hot glue the next size to the center of the largest two flowers.
Finish by hot gluing the smallest flower to the center.
Cut four of the 5/8 inch ribbon into 4.5 inch lengths.
Cut four of the 3/8 inch ribbon into 2.5 inch lengths.
Make a loop with the 5/8 inch ribbon and hot glue the ends together.
Repeat this will all four pieces of the 5/8 inch ribbon.
Hot glue these to the back of the flower.
Fold the 3/8 inch ribbon in half and hot glue the ends together.
Repeat this will all four pieces of the 3/8 inch ribbon.
Fold back the flower petals where the large loops come together.
Hot glue the 3/8 inch pieces on top of these loops and underneath the flower petals.
Finish by hot gluing a gem to the center of the flower.
Attach your hair bow to a barrette or ponytail holder. I recommend sewing them on using fishing line. I found they stay on the barrette or ponytail holder better with this technique when little hands might be pulling on them!I hope you enjoyed this tutorial! Thanks for stopping by!
