BOW PAPER CLIP BOOKMARKS

Got the idea from  How About Orange. These pretty little bookmarks were my 2011 Christmas gift stuffer. I used materials that i already have. Instead of fabrics, i used ribbons for the bow and i used those generic jumbo paper clips that were just waiting to be used.

 These are the things you will need. Not in the picture...glue gun.

4 1/2 inches of the wide ribbon and 2 inches for the thin ribbon .

Make a bow. Gather the middle part and sew it to secure the ends of the ribbon.

Wrap the bow and attach it to the paper clip. Sew to secure making sure it is tight enough.

Follow w/ a glue gun to make sure it is secured and attached tightly to the paper clip.

A few of what i made ;)

Aren't they cute?

D.I.Y. Headbands

 Made these for a co-worker's birthday who loves bows and headbands. These are so easy to make, all you need are ribbons, buttons, store bought undecorated headbands, arts and craft gadgets/tools and glue gun. Oh and your creativity "juice" hahaha!

First headband.

You decide on the size of the ribbon/bow. Just make sure that the top ribbon will be an inch shorter than the bottom ribbon. Also cut an inch and a half of a ribbon to wrap and secure your bows. Glue gun the bows to the headband.

Nice.... ;)

Cute
