How to Make Flower Bows

These bows are nice and easy and they turn out good with whatever colors you choose to use. I found the fabric at JoAnn's Fabric Store. It has to be 100% polyester or else it will not work.

Materials:
A hot glue gun
Candle
The colors of your choice 100% polyester fabric
White Felt 
Hair Clips  (we found the best price at Sally's Beauty Supply)
Craft Jewels

Instructions:
Choose the colors you'd like to use and trace 4 circles the following approximate sizes (no need to be exact). 

For each bow: 
Cut circles x 2:  about 12 cm (around a CD)
Cut circles x 1:  about 9 cm (around the top of a glass)
Cut circles x 1:  about 5 cm (around the bottom of a glass)

Light a candle and very carefully burn the edges of the circles till they curl upward, taking care not to light them on fire.  I used a clothespin so I didn't burn my fingers. Repeat for all the circles.

  Once all the circles are done they will look like this

 
Take the hot glue gun and put a dab of glue in the middle of one of your large fabric circles. Put your other large one on top and push with the clothespin so it looks like this. 

 
Put a dab of hot glue on the fabric circle on top and take the medium sized fabric circle and center it in the middle of the large fabric circle. Push it firmly with the clothespin.
  
Do the same with the smallest circle. Take one of the craft jewels and put a little bit of hot glue on the back of the jewel and place it in the middle of the flower.

 
Now it is almost finished! Take one of the hair clips place a small piece of felt between the prongs of the clip (about 3 cm tall and 2 1/2 cm wide) and  across the one side of the clip and the felt put some hot  glue around the outside of the clip.

Carefully place the clip on the flower and press firmly to hold in place.

  
Allow to cool and now you can put it straight in your hair!
