Good day, my dear friends! When the time of the holidays approaches (especially the last calls and September 1), such an item as a ribbon bow becomes especially relevant. This accessory is so popular with schoolchildren, mothers and just needlewomen that I could not get around it and decided to dedicate a whole post to bows.

All sorts of bows are actually found in our lives so often that we don’t even notice it - in jewelry, clothes, they are even used as an element school uniform... In general, if you want to learn how to make bows from the most different types ribbons, welcome!

Beautiful do-it-yourself ribbon bows: master classes

In fact, learning how to tie even the most complex bows yourself is not so difficult. Instructions with a large number of photos, which I have prepared for you in abundance today, will help with this. There will be both selections from the Internet and unique master classes specially prepared for you.

How to make satin ribbon bows: step by step instructions

Satin ribbons are the most popular material for creating small masterpieces. Smooth, shiny, relatively inexpensive ribbons have always attracted the attention of needlewomen from all over the world. The material has found application in the most different areas creativity, no exception to steel and decoration based different kind bows.

To create accessories, you can use ribbons of different widths, but it all depends on the chosen design and execution technique. Let's start with the simplest types.

The simplest classic bow

A basic bow that any beginner should learn to make is shown below. For him, you can take both a narrow and a very wide tape - it will turn out from any.

Work process:

1. Fold the ribbon over the two halves of the ribbon over the index fingers of both hands.
2. Cross the halves and slip one into the other.
3. Tighten the product. Ready!

On the basis of such a bow, you can make a chic decoration. It will be enough just to fill it with waterproof glue or shiny acrylic varnish, then attach the rings to which the chain will be fastened.

It will not be difficult to tie the same bow on a fork, with its help it will turn out to be more accurate and even (although you can create a very beautiful accessory on your fingers). There is also a limitation for such an “assistant” - it is useful only when creating very small bows, for larger products you will have to resort to the traditional method.

double tape

The double bow is performed in a slightly different way from the previous one. Two rings of tape and a separately created center, obtained by sealing the edges, are useful for it.

Fold two rings in the middle and sew or glue so that they are in contact with the side parts. After that, the middle is closed with a pre-made part. The design can be attached to a hairpin or elastic band.

Note!

For this accessory, you need to take a medium or wide ribbon; such beauty will not come out of a thin, narrow material. If your choice goes to a width of 2.5-5 cm, then this will be the ideal solution.

A variation of such a bow of two ribbons can be such an analogue: in this case, two rings are superimposed in the middle on each other. You can also experiment with colors- for example, create a red or green bow or even combine one or more shades in one product.

Try to make more than two layers, take ribbons of different widths and textures. Thus, from one scheme for creating a bow, you can create a wide variety of accessories.

Layered puffy bow

A great option for schoolgirls and not only. Such a bow is easy to put on a hairpin or comb to attach to your hair. It is based on two simple bows discussed earlier.

To fold this, you will need to make a base of two overlapping layers. From the ribbons folded in this way, the back will be obtained. The front is similar to the simplest first bow. At the end, they must be connected with glue or thread. Everything is held together by a central piece.

In this way, you can get more voluminous accessories, like the white bow below. There is one difference here - the basis is not two layers, but three.

Romantic and sophisticated, this addition to the image will please any graduate who wants to indulge in nostalgia. But this option, unlike jewelry for girls, is more adult and feminine, and this is exactly what is needed in such cases.

Twisted bow of 3-4 ribbons

Very beautiful bow which is good for head decoration. To do this, three or four (or even more) pieces of tape of the same width, but different lengths you need to sew with the sign of infinity and put one into the other. Draw the middle as in a few microns earlier.

Kanzashi

Many beautiful bows are made using the kanzashi technique. This type of creativity came, as you might guess, from distant Japan. There, in this way, magnificent details are created to complement not only everyday, but also festive outfits.

Bow flower

Making such a flower is not difficult, but painstaking. You will need at least 12 petals, which will need to be pre-cut from a ribbon 2 and 4 cm wide (you can take a different width, but not less than 1.5 cm).

First, make the first layer by stringing six wide petals and pulling them together. Put some kind of decoration between the layers and attach the second layer made in the same way. Don't forget the bead in the middle.

Another variation of simple but beautiful petals is located below. Here the flowers come out more pointed.

A more elegant white flower is created below. IN step by step photos you can see that the flower petals are made by twisting the ends inside the middle. Such a bow can consist of either a pair or five or six layers gradually increasing in number of elements.

Bow for discharge from the hospital

Newborns (and children in general) deserve the best! That is why I have found for you a beautiful bow that will suit both girls and boys. For it, you will need a sufficiently long tape (at least three meters).

In the middle, make a winding of several layers and then a knot as in the photo. After that, you will need to pull out a few petals formed by previously folded rings.

Why leave such long ends around the edges? The fact is that you will need to tie them around the long-awaited bundle, leaving a beautiful center in front. At one time, I generally purchased a five-meter ribbon - the nurse imposed such beauty from it that we still remember with a smile with the whole family.

How to tie a ribbon bow

Rep ribbon is good because, unlike satin, it is less prone to various kinds of damage. Satin should only be hooked once and that's it - appearance bow is damaged. With reps, such a trick will not work, but it also costs more.

Baby bows

The combination of several types of tapes looks very interesting. IN this case colors are also combined, which, nevertheless, look very organic. The polka dot ribbon is just perfect! Such a bow will decorate the girl's head for a holiday and in Everyday life. For him, you will need to connect two tucked parts, as was seen earlier in the master classes. The top will be decorated with a classic variation.

On an elastic band

Collecting a magnificent bow on an elastic band is not difficult. To do this, you will need several layers of bows, decorated as we did earlier. The number of layers is only limited by your imagination and common sense. The difference of this accessory is that under it there is a semblance of crosses with serifs at the ends.

You can connect all this splendor with ribbons 1 cm wide, bandaging the middle. You can attach a bow to the elastic with a glue gun or something similar.

A bright school-themed bow explodes early ideas of what a school accessory should be. It's just a bomb!

Butterfly bow

With the help of rep ribbons, you can even make a semblance of a tie! Yes, the butterfly will turn out small, but very effective. To create it, fold the ribbon, bending the edges under each other, as in the photo below. You will need three of these layers. Under them, attach a longer ribbon so that you can tie it at the back. In MK it is very short, in this form it can be left for a simple accessory.

And here is another fun variation of a bow tie. Nothing more or less bird feathers are used here, connected by a ribbon in the middle. An interesting interpretation of the standard butterfly, isn't it?

By the way, a butterfly bow can also be made from fabric, a master class on this below.

Bows for gift boxes

To tie a bow on gift box you will need not only tape, but also different types of wrapping paper.

big bow

A very large accessory for a very great gift. Such a bow can be made from a ribbon, but it is better to use wrapping paper, which will take a lot for such a work.

Insert a small box into the base of the decorative element. It may be a surprise or it may just be the basis for such an accessory. Place it in the center of the square, which close its edges at the top and bottom. Tuck the free edges as in the photo below (as if wrapping an envelope). Press the middle and wrap it with a small piece of paper of sufficient length. Straighten the edges to make them as fluffy as possible.

This bow can be used on its own or as a decorative piece for a huge surprise.

Beautiful for a gift

The next fluffy bow has an incredible Christmas mood. They literally breathe from him! For this, you will need to fold the ribbon as shown below, overlapping and tying several layers together.

Place a few bows on top of the structure, folded as shown below. Decorate the middle with a beautiful bear in a cap or any other decorative element.

Paper bows: simple, cheap, original. All master classes describe their creation in great detail.

Do you want even more bows for a gift? Read about it in another article.

Nylon bows

Nylon ribbon is traditionally used for graduates and hair decoration. But for other purposes, such bows can be used.

A simple bow on a fork is created in just a couple of minutes. To do this, you take a fork, thread it in the middle thin ribbon, thicker on top of it. Wrap the thicker ribbon around the tines of the fork many times, forming a braid. A thinner ribbon becomes the central part of such a flower.

A semicircular metal template will help to “cut” the petals with a small resemblance of a soldering iron. To do this, two ribbons - nylon and satin - must be folded as shown below. After that, the middle is bent inward and you will need a lot of such petals. They merge into one layer, then into another, etc., until you get a lush layered bow which can be used to decorate hair.

In the next accessory, nylon ribbon is used only as an additional accessory, decorating the base made of fabric. You can create such beauty in a few minutes, and decorated with a nylon ribbon, it will look even richer.

The next bow belongs to the gift category, but I decided to put it in this section, because it is made of nylon ribbon. For it, you will need to fold the tape in many layers, and make an incision in the middle, which will need to be tied with a thin fishing line, around which the ends should be tied. The most important step is coming: you need to pull out all the ends of the folded tape to get a very magnificent design.

Such a bow will decorate a Christmas tree or simply decorate an apartment.

A similar accessory can be made from a denser ribbon and even from burlap. It will be more difficult to pull out the ends, but the effect will turn out to be more unexpected and extraordinary.

Photos of other beautiful bows

How are they not made out! In the form of elegant brooches, bracelets and much more. For example, the accessory below will be an interesting addition to a festive outfit.

Another lace bow with a bead inside.

In general, thanks to lace, even the simplest design begins to look more original and festive.

Just look how you can spruce up your pen by adding layers of lace and satin ribbons to it.

A bow on the rim will make of ordinary girl doll hurrying to the ball.

Roses as bows. Great, isn't it?

The bow on the dress looks very impressive and original.

Satin Ribbon Rose

Of course, you can start with the simplest. To easily do unusual and complex things, you need to understand the basic techniques for creating products from satin ribbons. And it's best to see it step by step in the master class.

Step by step description

1. Although tulips, dandelions, hyacinths, primroses, and many other flowers are folded from ribbons, the rose is the most popular flower among craftswomen. Roses are most often made using the kanzashi technique. For the flower, choose a five-centimeter-wide ribbon of your desired color. Trim the edge of the tape evenly and melt it with a lighter so that it does not crumble. After that, lay the ribbon so that it wrong side was facing up.
2. Wrap the upper left corner down (there are arrows in the pictures of the master class and the fold lines are indicated by a dotted line), and wrap the lower left corner to the right twice.
3. We take a needle and thread of the same color as your ribbon. Fasten the resulting fold (the thread should be long, because you will have to flash the entire tape later).
4. Connect the two layers of tape, stitching from the fixed place to the right (it should be about one or two millimeters from the edge) and stop at the edge of the top tape.
5. Tuck the long edge of the tape to the left (in the direction of the arrow), and then the entire tape up to the right at an angle.
6. Make sure that the right sides match up and you have three layers. Sew them together, up from the bottom corner. Then stop, but do not cut the thread, but tuck the tape down, as the dotted line in the photo master class shows.
7. Then fold at an angle to the left and stitch again, only to the left along the top edge. After connecting the three layers, fold the tape in the direction of the arrow to the right, then at an angle down, and continue to sew.
