To start, you need to make the hairbows. So, first fold your fabric over twice to ensure the right thickness. Then, cut out the fabric. Next, fold the ends over and hot glue in place. Once set, pinch the middle for a bow shape and glue the creases down. Then, cut off another piece of fabric or small piece of ribbon to wrap around the middle, then glue the ends together. Once the hairbows are done, you're ready to move on to the next step!

Make the Wristband

To turn them into a wristband, simply cut off a piece of elastic to fit around your wrist. My best bet? Wrap the elastic around your wrist and cut where it overlaps. Then, hot glue the ends together. Finally, hot glue the hairbow to the front of your elastic.

Wear It in Style!
