OT show your bows :D

can anyone give any insight as to why my tails are curling up after a few weeks?

another question, what are you attaching the rhinestones with?

There's this stuff called mighty gem it and they stick really well or I use hot glue.

I just started making bows lastnight so mine arnt as pretty as yalls are but I'll post them anyway lol! Sorry about the quality I took the pics with my phone...


My first attempt at a fabric bow


Duct tape hair bow!





I'm gonna get some headbands tomorrow so i can make headband bows =) If yall have any tips on how to make them better that would be awesome! Thanks!

and one more...

if you are using spandex on your bows you might be pulling it too tight on the ribbon that might be why the tails are flipping out. but that usually happens right away not a few weeks after. just make sure you lay it down and arent pulling it though.

is there a video anywhere?! i know someone posted it before but i think i missed it cause some of the ones i'm looking at on youtube are not really good.
and the like bow part is flopping down, to make it stay do you just spray it with something?!

If your using grosgrain it shouldnt be too floppy if it wider ribbon like 2 to 3 inches. But something to help is to spray it with hairspray.

Two more I made yesterday. Still waiting on my fabric..lol

LOVE the zebra one!!

as soon as i get a job i'm going to start making bows... i don't have any money and all the stuff is so expensive! :[

what do you use to attach the fabric to the ribbon.
and how do you get the edges to not fray with the sequin fabric?

Just got done this one. First time trying 3 inch ribbon, and made the mistake of using the ultra hold instead of lite. Dear God...that was a fight. But I like it
