My kids brought home a notice last week for this terms disco, (crazy house colour disco) and not wanting to cover them all in blue (house colour) hairspray I made the girls some korker bows. (Not that I can get one of them to pose for me). If you haven't made korker bows before, they are extremely easy. Certainly a great way to use up some of my shorter lengths of ribbon. I used this tutorial to make mine.
As I was making them, I looked at the midnight muse and raspberry ripple ribbons and realised that they match our school colours really well and had to make a school themed korker bow as well. Of course I should have known better and made two of them at the same time as it is a contest each morning, which of my girlies are going to have it in their hair.
Stampin' Up! materials used:
Accessories: 2012-2014 midnight muse and raspberry ripple in color ribbons,
Other: Hat elastic, button
