  Step 1

  to make the basic ribbon bow, first make two loops in your ribbon, forming a 'U' shape. cross over the loops like so.

• 

  Step 2

  take the loop on to and bring it through the hole, like you're knotting it.

• 

  Step 3

  pull both loops to form a bow shape.

• 

  Step 4

  trim the ends to a point, then make repeat to make an identical bow.

• 

  Step 5

  glue a bobby pin on the back of each one like so.

• 

  Step 6

  to make the double ribbon bows, repeat steps 1-4 but working two strands of ribbon rather than 1.

• 

  Step 7

  glue a bobby pin on the back of each one

• 

  Step 8

  to make the fat bow, cut two pieces of wide ribbon 16cm long.

• 

  Step 9

  glue short edges to make a 'ring'

• 

  Step 10

  wrap some thin ribbon round the centre and glue in place.

• 

  Step 11

  if you want to, glue a sparkly on to each one like so.

• 

  Step 12

  glue a bobby pin on to each one

• 

  Step 13

  to make the beading lace bow, cut two pieces of beading lace and two strips of thin ribbon, each 13cm long.

• 

  Step 14

  thread the ribbon through the lace and use a little glue to secure each end.

• 

  Step 15

  glue the short edges to form a ring.

• 

  Step 16

  use a bit of the thin ribbon to form the centre.

• 

  Step 17

  glue a bobby pin on to each one

• 

  Step 18

  to make the double patterned bow, measure a strip of patterned ribbon and a strip of looped ribbon, each 27cm long.

• 

  Step 19

  use a thin layer of glue to glue the patterned ribbon on top of the looped, so only the loops show from underneath.

• 

  Step 20

  cut this in half.

• 

  Step 21

  glue the short edges to form a ring

• 

  Step 22

  measure 2 strips of patterned ribbon and two of looped ribbon, each 12cm long.

• 

  Step 23

  glue these on the centre back, patterned ribbon first. trim the edges- making the patterned ribbon a bit shorter to show the plain looped ribbon underneath. use a little thin ribbon for the centre of the bow. the loop will be stiff from all the glue, so it's better to fold it length ways when attaching the centre.

• 

  Step 24

  glue a bobby pin on the back of each bow!
