DIY Thursday: Bow Holder!

UMMM How adorable is this?!?!

If you are anything like this fetching little gal's mom and aunt(a.k.a Amy and I)......... 

Then your collection of those cute hair bows to accessorise ANY outfit looks like this......


So why not create something with functionality but also with some great eye appeal? This would look so cute in any little girls room and the best thing is that you can customize it for any little girls room!




All You Need:
A Great Frame-however big or small, round or square
Fabric
Glue Gun or Staple Gun
Coordinating Ribbon
Wood Letter
Paint

Directions:
1. Start by Measuring out the length of the ribbon, just depending on how long you want it. Also Paint your wood letter.

2. Then remove the glass from the frame you choose. Be sure to keep the cardboard insert or using the glass, cut a piece from a box if its those annoying ones that aren't the full size of the frame :)

3. Wrap the cardboard with the fabric you choose and either hot glue or staple it down to the cardboard, making sure no wrinkles happen.

4. Push fabric covered cardboard back into the frame and place the back insert back in to ensure a nice snug fit!

5. Using a very thin thin line of hot glue, center and glue on your wood letter.

6. Dab a bit of hot glue on the end of your cut ribbon and attach to the bottom backside of your frame!

7. Optional: you can either decide to use the hanger on the back of the frame or to jazz it up a bit, add some ribbon to the top and create a hanger :)


Now WHALA you have a great place to organize all those great hair accessories and something great to looks at as well!!!
