If you or your daughter is a cheerleader, you know that part of the task is standing out on the field. You want every part of the uniform to sparkle, including the bow. Cheerleader bows can be expensive to buy, but you can create your own bows customized with your team colors in just a few minutes. If you have some ribbon, scissors and glue, you, too, can make your own cheerleader hair bows.
Instructions
1. Cut the 2-inch wide ribbon into a 1-foot-long ribbon. Cut the edges at an angle or cut a triangle out of the end to slow the rate of fraying and to give the bow a decorative touch.
2. Make two 2-inch-long loops, one on both ends of the bow. Cross these loops in the center. There will be about 2 inches of tail left over for each loop.
3. Using the hot glue gun on low heat, glue the layers of the bow where they cross in the center.
4. Cut another piece of 2-inch wide ribbon into a 3-inch-long length.
5. Wrap the 3-inch length of ribbon around the center of the bow, where the loops crossed. Glue it into place with the hot glue gun on low heat.
6. Turn the heat of the hot glue gun to high. Glue the bow onto the hair clip.
