Inspiration: Boutique hair bows are expensive but beautiful. I figured I would give it a shot to see if I could make them myself.
To make yours like mine:
Ribbon 1 inch thick for main bow (striped)
Ribbon 1/4 inch thick for center (light blue)
Needle and thread ready to sew
Lighter
Superglue
Barrette for holding bow (I used a pin clip)
Arrange ribbon as shown, looping it from back to front.
Cut the ribbon when you have the desired size.
Pinch and fold the ribbon in the center. This may take a few times to master.
Once you have a good fold, sew it tight. Cut the ribbon again so that the bow looks nice and neat. Use a lighter to singe the ends of the ribbon. This will keep the ribbon from unraveling.
Wrap the smaller ribbon around the middle to hide the sewing. Cut it and superglue it. Open the pin curl clip and slip in into the bow. Voila!
