Lush white satin ribbon bow in 15 steps
Total Time: 35 minutes
-
Use a satin ribbon
Take a piece of 10 cm long satin ribbon to create a lush bow petal. Carefully scorch its edges with a lighter.
-
Work with the reverse side
Put the tape face down, then bend the first side into the corner.
-
Make a bend
Bend this edge again and fasten with a pin temporarily.
-
Bend on the other side
Bend the second edge of the tape in the same way.
-
Make a second corner
After that, perform another bend on the same side and fasten with a pin.
-
Prepare the needle and thread
Before doing this, correctly position the blank petal in front of you. All bends should be on the lower side, and the corners should be located at the top. Sew the 2 lower sides of the resulting square with basting stitch. Insert the needle from the wrong side on the right.
-
Fasten the parts together
Sew half of the blank.
-
Create a petal
Pull the thread gently to tighten the petal. Fix the thread and cut it off. You should get a petal for the future bow, as in the photo.
-
Prepare 12 petals
Make a few petals this way. Their number depends on the desired splendor of the bow. If necessary, you can finish the desired number of elements while working.
-
Use felt
Cut a circle from a piece of white felt 4.5 cm in diameter.
-
Place the petals on the blank
Glue the petals to the felt circle with hot glue.
-
Make the first row of petals
Place the 8 petals in a circle in the first row.
-
Create a second row of petals
Glue 5 blanks together to create a second row of petals.
-
Connect all the petals
Glue the second row on top of the first one.

Use artificial jewelry
Decorate the middle with a decorative bead. To do this, fix it with an adhesive gun. Fasten the elastic band on the back side.
