DIY Flowered Hair Bow

DIY your own Flowered Hair Clip from leftover fabric! Made with a glue gun so no sewing is involved!How to make this flowered hair bow with your left over fabric scraps!

The credit for this cute hair clip is  Sister See Sister Do, this is their full tutorial.   I decided to give it a try with the intention of making it out of our school plaid for a friends daughter. I used this leftover fabric to practice with.
I am not here to re-invent the wheel so you can go to Sister See Sister Do to see the tutorial however, I will share with you some things that helped me that are not on their tutorial. First the thought of cutting out circle by circle one at a time was mind numbing and I have no patience so a folded up the fabric so that it was 6 layers thick and clipped it with a paper clip to hold it. This made it go super quick.
When I was ready to glue the pieces, I found it did better for me to do a circle so that it would bunch up tight.
Be careful with that hot glue gub this can be a hazzard of the job!
On the back of my flowered hair clip, I used a clamp style clip. Just make sure you put your finger in between  the clip while it dries so you don’t glue the clip together!
I loved how cute this is and it holds really well even in thin hair.
I loved how my first one turned out so I decided to make another but I forgot to clip the ends into a triangle. I decided to just go with it and see what happened and here it is, they both look great I think, which one do you like the best?diy-flowered-hair-clip-leftover-fabric-ideas
