Lets make a cute bow!

Here is the team uniform for this season! Yes, it is yellow and black. So, maybe the team name will be bumble bees or Shae says lemon heads.
I'll keep you posted on that one!
So of course I have to make a cute bow to match! This is how to make one.
Here are the measurements for making one bow.
First, pick 5 different colors / patterns of ribbon.
white is 5/8" cut @ 5" x 2
black polka dot is 5/8" cut @ 5" x2
yellow is 7/8" cut @ 9" x 1
soccer ball is 7/8" cut @ 9 3/4" x 1
yellow and white stripe is 1" cut @ 10" x 2

I use a glue gun. A dot is all you need.
You can see the order that this bow is stacked. Put a small glue dot after each stack then add the center. The center knot is tied very loose and wraps around the back and glued. Then add the clip of your choice.
I use a alligator clip for quick in and out.
