Description

I love bows and buttons so I decided to combine both. I went to Michael's and purchased a bad of mixed buttons and I chose some to put on my bows.

Instructions

  1. Small 2011 07 31 22.22.41 1 1 1312349193

    For this project I used red ribbon, red threaded (depending on the color of the ribbon). I also used scissors.

  2. Small 2011 07 31 22.23.19 1312349243

    I made a bow shape by folding the red ribbon and then used thread to keep the shape. I used a bobby pin here to demonstrate the bow shape.

  3. Small 2011 07 31 22.33.11 1312349295

    Once you've tied down the bow you can sew your button onto the bow.

  4. Small 2011 07 31 22.40.50 1312349343

    At this point I would glue a bobby pin to the back to use in my hair or glue a pin tack to wear on my shirts, depends on you.
