How To Make a Bow Tie For Prom

This time on Threadbanger, Rob and Corinne have been showing you how to DIY your prom threads. Now it just wouldn't be fair if we only worked on dresses for the girls. So, here's a simple tutorial on how to make a bow tie out of an old scarf. To see more of threadbanger, subscribe to us on itunes!

What you need:

An old scarf or 1 yard of fabric
2 old ties
bow tie pattern (found on the threadbanger blog)
sewing machine
sissors
pins

Step 1 Getting Started

1. First thing is to get about one yard of fabric. We used fabric from an old scarf we found at a thrift store.


2. Go to the Blog at Threadbanger.com and download the bow tie pattern. Cut out the pattern from a large sheet of paper.

Duct tape seems to be the new "in" thing to make clothing and accessories out of. There was a contest to see who could make the best prom dresses out of duct tape. I was blown away at the creativity these kids used.
