With the help of this master class, we will teach you how to make American bows from satin and rep-ribbons yourself. Bantik turns out fluffy and smart, and, for sure, like a young fashionista.
Materials for the American bow
To make such a bow you will need (based on 2 identical bowls about the size, about 8 cm long):
- Satin ribbons 60 cm in length and 5 cm in width - 2 pcs .;
- ribbons 50 cm long and 2.5 cm wide - 2 pieces;
- ribbons are 12 cm long and 2.5 cm wide - 6 pcs .;
- ribbons 35 cm long and 1 cm wide - 4 pcs .;
- scissors;
- thread and needle;
- lighter;
- rubber bands - 2 pcs .;
- felt bases - 2 pcs .;
- midpoints for bows - 2 pcs .;
- glue gun.
Progress:
- Take a satin ribbon 5 cm wide and burn the lighter edge.
- We put the bow in this way.
- Then sew thread. Next, you need to pull the thread to make a bow, and fix it with a nodule. That's what should happen.
- The same is done with a ribbon tape 2.5 cm wide.
- After the two main parts of our bow are already ready, we begin to supplement it. We take rep-ribbon (you can use and satin) with a width of 2.5 cm, and a length of 12 cm cut the edges of the "corner" and burn the cigarette lighter.
- Now you need to take thin ribbons and glue together with a glue gun in this way.
- So all the necessary elements for our bows are ready.
- Further it will be necessary to assemble them in a single whole in such a sequence.
- Our American bow is almost ready, it remains only to attach the elastic band to it with an adhesive gun and fix it on top with a felt base.
- You can glue any middle you like for a bow. It can be a Kansas flower, crystals or crystals, beads, beautiful buttons, flowers made of cloth or leather .
- That's what we got.
Now you can easily make the same American bows with your own hands, as you can see - it's very simple!
