Duck Tape Hairbows

Hey Y'all! Sorry I haven't posted in a while. I have been keeping busy with my summer job. Anyway...

Last Friday was my 17th birthday(I feel SO old!), and my mom threw a surprise party for me. Thank you to mom and all my guests, I had so much fun. I love you guys! 

Getting back to the reason for the post, for my birthday my brother Barrett gave me some DUCK TAPE! Duck tape is awesome! Not only can you fix things with it, you can also make REALLY cute crafts, 
like hairbows. 


You can add bobby pins to the finished product.

Pull out some of your duck tape in whatever color you like.

Cut off a strip twice as long as you want your bow to be. I cut mine about 6 inches long.

Take your strip of duck tape and...

Fold it in half. You may need to trim the ends to get rid of any sticky parts.

To find the center of the tape, I fold it in half again and run my nail along the crease.(It will create a faint line like in the picture above.)

Press your strip into a fan shape.

Then cut a little piece of tape. This piece can be made of the same color or a different color.

Wrap this piece around the center of your bow.

Now you have a finished duck tape hairbow!

To attach a bobby pin, simply insert the pin into the back part of the bow.

How cute! :D


God bless!
