Ladybug Hair Ribbons

Ladybugs! That is the theme I selected for my upcoming baby shower. Turns out its a little more challenging to find ladybug stuff in the fall but that is ok. One thing my Mom wanted was some hair bows for my cousins daughters. She got the supplies and turned it over to me to see what I could make.

The ribbon was an adorable green with pink ladybugs. There are also two sized of hair clips.



Now I thought starting off that I would just need this things and some glue. However I ended up pulling out wire and the hot glue gun. Eventually I was able to make a bow with 24 gauge wire that I was pretty satisfied with.



Next I decided I needed to cover the hair clip since the bow would not cover the whole thing. I used hot glue for this.



The next step was to attach the bows to the covered hair clips, again it was all about the hot glue gun.



I knew that the bows still needed something more so I dug into my beads and found some that added a little something to the bows giving us the finished product.
