How to make hair clips from satin ribbons by yourself

Unusual hairpins for girls are not so cheap, and unique handmade products can be very expensive. But why pay extra money to someone if you can create hair clips from a satin ribbon yourself? And this process does not take much time and does not require any grandiose expenses. All that is needed to create a beautiful hair accessory is the most common hairpin and elastic bands, ribbons of different widths and sewing accessories.

Hairpin "Curlet"

So, the first version of a hair clip from a satin ribbon with your own hands is "curls". It will need round wooden dowels, bands of contrasting colors half a centimeter in width, as well as paper clips or wooden clothespins and a base for attaching to the hair. Manufacture of hairpins from satin ribbons of this pattern begins with the fact that the ribbon is wrapped around the entire core and fixed on both sides. After the desired number of curls is wrapped, the blanks are laid out on a baking tray and baked in the oven at a temperature of 180 degrees for about 7-10 minutes. After this time, the ribbons on the dowels need to cool down, then they are removed from the wood and cut off the tips. For reliability, they can be slightly melted, so that during the wear of the tape is not disheveled. It remains to fold the curls, sew in the middle and attach to an elastic band or hair clip.

Hairpin "Bant"

The second version of a hairpin from a satin ribbon (it's even easier to make it with your own hands) - a bow. The main thing here is to pick a beautiful ribbon, it can be peas or with hearts. Also, ribbons with stripes or with the favorite of all girls will look beautiful - Kitty. There are two options for making such a bow. If the base of this ornament is an elastic band, then the bow can be tied directly to it and fastened to it so that it firmly holds the shape. If it is attached to the invisible, then it is done separately: a piece of tape (about 10 cm) is closed in a circle, folded with a seam in the middle and tied with another ribbon, creating a beautiful knot. For a volumetric double bow make two or three closed segments, one slightly larger than another, lay them on top of each other and tie a beautiful knot in the middle, after which the workpiece can only be attached to the barrette.

Hairpin "Ruches"

The third option is ruches. To make such a hairpin from the satin ribbon, with their own hands a wide invisibility is taken as a base, on the length of a ribbon with a width of 2.5 cm, ruffs are gathered, making stitches in the middle of the ribbon with a needle. Ruches are collected tight, the edges of the bands are melted, after which the workpiece is glued or sewn to the base. If you make the assembly of a tape from one edge, you can form a beautiful flower, sew a few beads or bunches in the middle and attach it to the base. Such a flower can decorate and rims.

Hairpins made of satin ribbons are easy to make, the main thing is to include fantasy and stock up on the necessary trifles. With the tapes you can combine a huge amount of materials - these are beads, and fur, and capron, all kinds of rhinestones and pendants, sequins and even felt. Plus such jewelry not only in their low cost, the main advantage of these accessories is uniqueness and the ability to create a thing that will most closely match the color and style of clothing, which is important enough for a harmonious image.
