Bows are a great accessory for any outfit! Making a bow tie for yourself is much better
than buying a new one! There are some
fun and easy steps you can follow to make your own amazing bow! Special thanks to the Fashion Diva Design
Blog for these great ideas!
1. Find
some fabric- The thicker the
better! You don’t necessary have to go out and buy material. You can use denim
jeans or an old dress!
2. Cut
the fabric into the shape of a rectangle. Normally 6 inches is good. The
fabric will be folded over and bunched in the center.
3. Create
the Bow. Fold the fabric halfway. Sew the three side remaining sides (if you
want). Leave a little hole so you can turn the piece inside out—so you will not
be able to see the stitches
4. Make your bow. Find the center of the
rectangle and push the top and the bottom of the fabric into a bow-like shape.
Sew it down the middle to hold it in place. If you’d like to hide the
stitching, sew a small band around the middle.
5. Extras— You can use a rubber elastic at
the back of the bow to secure it. Also a ribbon or button. Let your imagination
run wild!
