Cute Bow Tie

Here's a really easy way to make a cute bow out of ribbon! You can attach this bow to not just rings but hair clips, hair ties and jewellery as well.

Materials

You will need:
• A piece of rather thick ribbon about three inches long
• Needle
• Thread
• A lighter (if you don't have one, you can use matches instead)
• A plain ring

Burn the ends of the ribbon with a lighter. If you don't have one, any kind of fire (or a lit match) will do. Try not to burn the ribbon or leave black marks on it.

Form a loop with the ribbon and hold down where the ends meet.

Use the needle and thread and sew down the middle of the (almost completed) bow. Pull it tight so the ribbon forms a bow shape.

Wind your leftover thread around the middle of the bow to create the bow shape.

Grab a new piece of thread and attach your bow to the ring. Tie the thread up on the inside of the ring.

Done
