Ribbon Flower Headband

Just like every other woman on the planet, I LOVE Pinterest! I love doing projects and with over 400 pins with most being projects or recipes I have a lot to do.

There a a ton of different bow tutorials that I am trying, my bows look nothing like my friend Ashley’s but I am practicing :) .

One of my first Pinterest projects was to make something for Finley for baby dedication. I knew I wanted her to wear this pink smocked dress but I wasn’t sure what she was going to wear on her head. I seen this simple little ribbon flower and I knew it would be perfect. I loved the way it turned out and it was so easy.

Materials used:
25 in ribbon or lace
Felt circle
Hot glue gun

I just bought a sheet of felt material and cut out a two inch circle.

Then I start gluing on the ribbon. I glued one end to the edge of the the circle and then continued around the circle.  When I got around to the beginning I shifted up and started gluing the ribbon to the lower layer of ribbon. I continued doing that until I had covered all of the felt. I then trimmed off the excess and glued down the end.

Then I glued a pearl button in the middle.

The final step was hot gluing it onto a lace headband.

I loved the way it turned out. I have also seen this made with lace and they are super cute. I couldn’t find the color of lace I wanted so that is why I used ribbon.

As we were walking out the door to head to dedication I noticed Finley didn’t have her headband on. I yelled, “oh my goodness, where is her bow!” we would have been coming back home for that. Bryan informed me that “God would probably not accept her without a bow.” Yes he thinks I’m crazy .

    Thanks Ashley! You do a great job at all your crafty ideas!!! Love this one!!! Oh and I understand about the bow thing and having to have one on their head at all times I was the same way with Alayna…but Anistyn will not keep one in for anything…and poor Adley we are lucky to remember the diaper bag with her!! :) If you are into making bows go to ribbonretreat.com they have lots of ribbon and try some of their stiffen spray…that’s the trick to a good bow!! ;)
