Hairpin-bow

Hairstyle plays a big role at any age. Particular attention is paid to little girls. To decorate their heads, mothers spend a lot of money on all kinds of bows. I decided to make it myself. In this way, you can choose the perfect bow not only in size, but also in color. This is the bow I got. To make it I needed:
-satin ribbons 0.5 cm wide;
-beads;
-ruler, scissors and pencil;
-glue (I use a glue gun);
- thick fishing line;
- stand (I use foam from a reel of ribbons).

I needed


First of all, cut all the ribbons into 10 cm pieces.

In order to make one petal, you need to fold the segment in half, with the front side inward, using tweezers to pinch the corner that was created when folded.

Then, we cut the corner with scissors and solder it over the fire.

Now you need to unfold the “daw” and, aligning the lower edges with an overlap, solder the bottom.

This way you need to complete all the petals.

By the way, you will need quite a few of them and it will take about the same amount of time. While I was doing it, a couple of times I felt like giving up everything and doing something else. I burned 2 candles while I got used to these petals. Now you can move on to other components of the future flower.To do this, cut the fishing line into 10 cm pieces.

Now, using a glue gun, glue the beads onto the fishing line at the required distance.

For my flower, I decided to make 6 twigs. 2 of each color and 2 mixed colors.

As a result, I came to the conclusion that it is better to make such cables using moment crystal glue. The pistol quickly hardens and creeps out a little beyond the bead.
We begin to put all our details together. To do this, on a base of the required diameter (I have leather), glue the first row of petals in random order.

To prevent them from getting in the way, since they are not completely flat, it is best to place a stand under the base. We glue the cables on top of the first row and cover them with the second row of petals.

In order for the cables to be better visible, and ultimately they would not get tangled in the hair, I decided to thread them through the petals of the second row to the top.

Little by little, preferably in a checkerboard pattern, we paste row after row until a small circle remains for the middle.

Then, I filled the middle with glue and made a pile of beads.

In the end it turned out like this.

And this is how the flower looks without a stand. The petals stretch and the hairpin looks more voluminous.

Glue the desired bow pin to the back of the base. It is better to choose it not by luck, but by the thickness of your princess’s hair.
