Boutique Style Hair Bow with Crystal

Wednesday, November 5, 2014

Hello Ribbons Unlimited Inc. Fans!!!
It's Crystal here with a fun bow made with grosgrain ribbon from the Ribbons Unlimited Inc.
Today I will be using the Zebra and the Black 1 1\2" grosgrain ribbon to create my boutique style bow with feathers.  I start with a 30" strip of  black and Zebra grosgrain form a figure eight and clamp to hold together.
