Instructions
Step 1
Lace bow barrette
Take lace of the desired width and cut it so that it is 2 times the length of the desired bow size. Cut off another piece to decorate the middle of the product.
Step 2
Fold the lace in such a way that its cuts are in the middle of the wrong part of the workpiece and overlap a little. Fold the second part several times and drag the middle of the blank for the bow to it. Tie in a knot on the wrong side and cut off the ends. The bow is ready. To make the detail more magnificent, you can make another larger piece of lace in a contrasting color or material to match and attach it to the wrong side of the smaller one.
Step 3
Attach the base for the hairpin to the workpiece and sew it with several stitches. Do this through the special holes on both sides.
Step 4
Bow hairpin made of felt
Felt is an excellent material for making all kinds of jewelry. It comes in a wide variety of shades. It is very convenient to work with it, since its edges do not crumble.
Step 5
From felt, cut a rectangle 5 cm wide and 15 cm long. Cut a piece of lace the same length as the rectangle from the base material. Fold its sides towards the center so that they overlap slightly. Attach lace and wrap the piece of felt with it, while the ribbon should be located exactly in the middle of the rectangle.
Step 6
Pull the workpiece with a strong thread in the middle, forming a bow. Attach a thin satin ribbon to cover the threads. Sew the sections on the wrong side of the bow. On the front side in the middle, glue a decorative button or bead. Attach a barrette blank to the wrong side of the bow and sew it with a few stitches.
Step 7
American Satin Ribbon Bow
Cut 2 pieces of a rep ribbon 2.5 cm wide and 50 and 40 cm long. From satin ribbons 1 cm wide, cut 2 pieces 30 cm long each, 2 pieces 26 cm each and 8 satin ribbons 2.5 cm wide and 12- 13 cm. Burn all parts on both sides with a lighter so that the edges do not fall off. On all ribbons, mark the middle with a simple pencil.
Step 8
Take the largest reps ribbon. Loop one end and attach it to the marked center of the tape. Wrap the other side in the same way. The result should be an eight. Pin the joint between the ribbon cuts. Fold the 40 cm long piece in the same way.
Step 9
Connect the edges of the eights in the middle with each other and sew each bow with basting stitches. Then pull them together and wrap the thread around the stitches. Fold narrow ribbons also in eights and pin the joints together. Connect them 2 pieces and sew in the middle.
Step 10
Cut the ends of the shortest ribbons with a corner. Lay them on top of each other in a circle. Pin in the center. Then press a large reps ribbon bow, a smaller bow and parts of narrow ribbons on it. Sew all the parts together in the middle and wrap the entire structure with thread in the center, pulling the bow.
Step 11
Hot glue the base for the hairpin in the middle to the wrong side, and in order to make the design stronger, sew the hairpin with several stitches through the special holes. Glue a bead in the center of the American bow.
