Make Pony Bows

Ponytails are a simple, efficient way to keep hair off the face. They're also a popular hairdo choice for many young girls. Ponytails can keep hair neat and tidy for even the most rambunctious of tomboys.


Pony Bows, or Pony-O Bows, are a whimsical hair accessory for all young girls who want to dress up their ponytails. With just a hair elastic, ribbon, and a few crafting supplies, a basic ponytail can be turned into a stylish fashion statement.


Instructions


1. Cut approximately one dozen 12-inch ribbons with your scissors. Cut one end of the ribbon at an angle, and cut the other end straight across.


The ribbons can be a variety of colors and patterns. Mix and match the ribbons to achieve your desire colored palette and pattern.


2. Spray the ends of the cut ribbon with anti-fray aerosol. Allow the ribbons to dry completely so they are no longer sticky or wet. Work outside, holding the aerosol away from your body.


3. Lay the hair elastic at the straight-cut end of your first ribbon. Fold this end over the hair elastic approximately half an inch.


4. Sew the folded end of the ribbon to the ribbon beneath it. The ribbon should now be attached to the hair elastic.


5. Sew the rest of the ribbons to the hair elastic in this manner.


6. Tie your hair up in a ponytail with the ribbon-covered hair elastic --- then you can sport this adorable look.
