Ribbon Hair Flowers

We came up with this idea to make ribbon flowers to attach to hair clips or to place on a headband.







Here's our tutorial!

The first thing you will want to do is cut five strips of ribbon about 2.5 to 3 inches long each.

Then, you will fold each of those peices so the two ends meet, making individual pedals.

After that, you will glue each pedal together at the point where the ends meet to make the complete flower.

Your flower should look something like this.

Next you can add more color and depth to your flower by making a smaller flower and gluing it inside the larger one.

Place a button, bead, or any other type of embellishment in the middle.
Then if you want to use it for a hair accessory, glue a clip or headband to the back.

Here is an example of one of my baby headbands with the flowers...

  7. Hiya! Quick question that's totally off topic. Do you know how to make your site mobile friendly? My web site looks weird when browsing from my iphone4. I'm trying to find a theme or
    plugin that might be able to fix this issue. If you have any recommendations, please share.
    Many thanks!

  9. Howdy would you mind letting me know which web host you're using? I've loaded your blog in 3
    different browsers and I must say this blog loads a lot quicker then most.
    Can you recommend a good internet hosting provider at a honest price?
