Want to make these patriotic votives??Check out my tutorial at Mod Podge Rocks !!



Do you want to learn how to make a candle but have never quite been able to pull the trigger to try it yourself? I was the same way for a long time too. Something about the hot wax freaked …


Handmade Paper Rose
Headband Refashion


Our headband  had a flower that was starting to look a little tired and worn so we made it new again! This braided ribbon could embellish many things— a hair clip would be cute too! These headbands would make great handmade gifts for little girls to make each other!


Ribbon Loom Flower

 I found a large stash of vintage seam binding and love to make ribbon loom flowers with it. For this project, the blooms are both gift topper and a broach to wear- a simple and stylish way to embellish a present.

In addition to vintage, new rayon seam binding is easy to find and comes in a huge array of colors. To make the flowers I used both a vintage loom {found on Ebay} and a loom made by Clover. Traditionally, straw or thinner width ribbon is used with looms, but I like how the seam binding makes the flowers a bit blousy and full.


 


There are two ways to make the petal point on flowers, sewing the center points or heat sealing the center points.Heat Seal Center Points & Sewing Center Points.

 


 I discovered this envelope making method completely by accident when pulling soggy rain-soaked mail out of my leaky mailbox - I had a total *eureka* moment when the envelope I gingerly opened up completely unfolded at the seams revealing an envelope "template" perfectly.




Here’s a another simple, fun DIY bracelet tutorial for you. This was actually my Sunday afternoon project, but it took me a couple days to compile the pictures.  But here it is for you!
I love this DIY ribbon and pearl woven bracelet for its classic girly look and of course, how easy it do! It works well as a stand alone bracelet or even stacked with some other bracelets for an arm party. It’s a very elegant piece, and I think it would look worn at a more formal event such a wedding!

Loopy Ribbon Flower



So here you have it, the loopy ribbon flower. They are pretty easy, but oh so cute. Now that I've actually got a little princess to dress up, I'll be sharing more hair accessory tutorials in the future. Because dang they are fun to make!
 
 Ribbon Flower Pin

 

Make this beautiful ribbon flower for a pin or use it on a card!



Ribbon comes in so many fun and unique colors and patterns!  I love to create, design, and personalize craft projects and hair bows. Ever look at two ribbons love the designs and wish you could combine them into one? Actually you can!





Probably the most used of supplies are the foam ball and the glue gun. If you have them at first place, everything else depends on your creativity and personal taste. You can just glue any kind of embelishments such as buttons, lace flowers, newspaper rolls… or just to pin sequins, paper flowers, pearls, beads and other in the foam ball.
