For all those hair flowers....

We must have twenty or more of those very popular hair flowers that we have made for Little Miss. We needed and alternative storage solution rather then tossing them all in the bathroom drawer.

We went to the ribbon store for a quick tutorial on how to make these adorable ribbon holders. This is what Little Miss picked out and how we made it.

Select a D ring and two coordinating ribbons. We chose a length of 1 1/2 yds.

Front. Make sure the top ribbon is nice and straight before hot gluing. We did a few very tiny hot glue dots down the length of the ribbon so the top ribbon would not move.

Back. You want a nice clean back edge.

Another view of the back.

Attach the flower to the top. Place it right on top of the ribbon that
was brought through the D ring from the back.

Cut the ends and add Fray Check.

Clip flowers to the finished project.
Little Miss likes her new ribbon holder hanging from the side of
her bulletin board in her room.


***The helper at the ribbon store said this project would take about 2 minutes:) It was quick, but a little longer than two minutes!
