Introduction: Cheer Bow
Need a bow that you can show off at a cheerleading event?
This tutorial will show you how to properly produce a cheer style bow to ensure that you will fit in at any cheer-leading event.
Time Estimate:
· 15 Minutes.
What You’re Going To Need:
· 28 inches long, 3 inches wide grosgrain (type of ribbon)
· Rhinestone or something alike for the center of the bow
· Zip tie
· Hot glue
· Scissors
· Lighter
· Hair tie
Step 1: Step One
Match ends and fold of grosgrain to make diagonal cuts, cut at a 60-degree angle. Heat the ends to ensure that the grosgrain does not unravel.
Step 2: Step Two
Create the ‘awareness ribbon’ shape, and move the back layer under the top two layers. Then fold the first crease towards the back of the bow.
Step 3: Step Three
Add a hair tie to the back of the bow, and place a zip-tie in the center and pull tight. Hot glue the center to ensure that it does not move and unravel the bow.
Step 4: Step Four
You can then decorate the middle of the bow with whatever type of decoration you want!
