Tag: Bow Frame

Last week, I shared my son’s DIY Skateboard Shelves, and this week I’m sharing a DIY project that I recently created for my daughter’s room.  She has quite the collection of {pretty bows} and the box that was holding them, just wasn’t cutting it anymore. With little time in the morning, I was tired of looking for the perfect bow to complement her pretty little outfit….until I created this solution~

It was super easy to make…and here’s how:

Supplies

• Frame: Any picture frame of any size will do ~ whatever works for your space
• Fabric: Any fabric will do ~ whatever complements your decor
• Ribbon
• Staple gun

1. Start off with your frame ~
I used a picture frame that wasn’t being used to create my PER-TAY Bow Display (no need to buy anything)

2. Wrap your fabric of choice around the cardboard and staple it with a staple gun ~ I used the cardboard that came with the frame since it was already the exact size.  It’s important that the cardboard is thick enough for a staple to go through.  If it isn’t, add an additional piece of cardboard.

3. Time to add the ribbon.  Once you determine your ribbon layout, staple it to the back ~There are LOTS of variations on adding the ribbon.  (I also used hot glue to keep my ribbon in place, then stapled) See more ideas below….

Ribbon Ideas

• Create a diagonal pattern with your ribbon
• Use different sized ribbon, but all the same color
• Use the same size ribbon in different colors

4. You’re DONE…admire your masterpiece!

Wait….it’s NOT quite finished yet…It needs {BOWS}

NOW it’s COMPLETE!

Another view…

This was a fun and easy project to create.  Because I used materials that were just layin’ around, the project cost nothing….$0…my FAVORITE kind of project!  AND it makes my life in the mornings a whole lot EASIER!
