How To Create Your Own Sewing Patterns For Fabric Hair Bows

Hey there! Have you ever found yourself staring at a pile of scrap fabric and wondering what to do with it? Well, wonder no more! Today, I want to share with you a fun and easy project - scrap fabric hair bows.

These hair bows are not only adorable, but they are also eco-friendly. Instead of throwing away leftover fabric, you can repurpose it and create something beautiful.

How to Make Scrap Fabric Hair Bows

To get started, gather your materials:

Scrap fabric
Scissors
Hot glue gun
Hair clips or headbands

Now, follow these easy steps:

Cut the fabric into strips that are about 1.5 inches wide and 6 inches long.
Fold the fabric in half lengthwise, with the right side facing in.
Sew along the long edge, leaving a small opening at each end.
Turn the fabric right side out and use a pencil or chopstick to push out the corners.
Trim the ends and tie a knot in the middle of the fabric strip.
Take another strip of fabric and tie it tightly around the knot, covering it completely.
Glue the bow onto a hair clip or headband.
Trim the ends of the bow and fluff it up to your liking.

And that's it! You now have a beautiful hair accessory that you made yourself.

Tips & Tricks

Here are a few things to keep in mind:

Choose fabrics that are lightweight and easy to work with, like cotton or linen.
Experiment with different bow shapes and sizes.
If you don't have a hot glue gun, you can use fabric glue or hand sew the bow onto the clip or headband.
Don't be afraid to mix and match fabrics for a fun and colorful look.

So, what are you waiting for? Raid your scrap fabric stash and get crafting! Your hair (or your little one's hair) will thank you.
