Make A Streamer Ponytail Bow

This craft project will help use up the ponytail holders lying around the house!


Streamer ponytail bows are a fashion staple for young girls and cheerleaders that are easy and fun to make. Largely made of ribbons or fabric scraps, this is an inexpensive craft project that, when made correctly, lasts a long time and can be used again. The bows are easy to personalize with different colors to match outfits or team colors, and they also make great favors for birthday parties!


Instructions


1. Cut each of the six ribbons to 15 inches in length.


2. Stack five of the ribbons in order from widest to thinnest, keeping them centered on top of each other. The six ribbon should be reserved to make the center knot later.


3. Stitch a line across the middle point of the layers, and then tie the ends of the thread together to cinch the ribbons at the center.


4. Glue the ponytail holder with hot glue to the back of the stack of ribbons, on top of the cinched thread. Wait for the glue to dry and cool before moving on.


5. Knot the reserved ribbon so the pattern shows on both sides of the knot.


6. Glue the knot to the front of the cinched bunch of ribbons, with the point of the knot facing outwards. Wrap the ends around the back to the ponytail holder and glue in place, trimming off the excess ribbon.
