TO PINTEREST!!!!!!
I just love pinning! There are so many great ideas on there. Here is a project I found tha I must do for my sweet niece Addison because she has a million bows already.
DIY Bow Holder
You will need:
* A frame. Any size, shape, color will do. Get creative! Just be sure the bottom is flat so that you can put hooks into it for the headbands to hang on. If you're on a budget, check your local thrift stores as they almost always have frames for a couple bucks each.
* Spray paint. Whatever color you'd like!
* Ribbon. I'd stick with non-silky ribbon, just because you don't want the clips to fray it or mess it up over time. I opted for a fun floral print to give it a little pizazz.
* Small hooks. I used 20 of them, but it's up to you how many headbands you'd like to be able to hang, and it depends on the size of your frame. You can get these at a hardware store. Sorry I don't have the original package, we had these leftover from hanging her birdhouses in her room!
* A flower or some other embellishment. I got this crocheted one at Michael's. Find something to accent part of the holder. Again with the pizazz.
* Holiday decor and background clutter is optional.
This project could cost under $10, really. It all depends what you have on hand. I bought ribbon for $1.99, a $2 picture frame, and a $2.99 flower.
---First, measure for the number of hooks that you are using and use a pencil to make marks evenly where the hooks will go. USE A RULER! It will look much better if they're all spaced perfectly even, I promise. :)
---Once your marks are made, you can either push and screw them in yourself, or, if you're a huge sissy like me and aren't strong enough, ask your husband to do it for you.
---After all of the hooks are in, spray paint that puppy. If you use an unfinished frame, like I did, be sure to do at least 2 coats. Get all the nooks and crannies of the hooks too!
---Give that at least a few hours to dry. This project seriously didn't take us much time at all because we spaced it out and just did something here and there. That's pretty much what we did with ALL the DIY projects in Jory's room.
---Once your frame is completely dry, measure and cut your ribbon. Be sure to leave at least 5 inches extra so that you can have enough to staple down, and cut the edges later. You can do only vertical ribbons, as I did, or you can do some horizontal ones too.
---Staple your ribbon with a staple gun just inside the frame. I put 2 staples on each end to hold it more taught, as it is fabric and can easily be wavy. It's very helpful to have an extra set of hands for this step!
---If you're including an embellishment, hot glue it on.
Voila! LOVE IT! It matches great with her room, and I absolutely love how it turned out!
