DIY - Girls Hair Bow Holder in Picture Frame Craft

Do It Yourself Hair Bow Holder

As our name states, The Spenderella, so of course we have a spending problem especially when it comes to shopping for our girls. Our girls have a wide arrange of hair accessories. We needed a way to organize our girls hair bows so here is our DIY Hair Bow Holder craft.

Here is what you will need to get started:

Fabric
Cardboard or Thick Foam Poster Board
Picture Frame (large)
Hooks
Ribbon
Wooden pieces (found in craft section to make bracelets/necklaces)
Glue gun
Tape
Scissors

Glue Fabric Down:

First, take cardboard or thick foam poster board to cut to set inside picture frame. Cut fabric to fit over cardboard piece. We opted for fabric that matched our daughters bedding set. I used the original cardboard that was already in the picture frame to cover with fabric. Next, for easy gluing tape fabric down on cardboard. When you are ready to super glue remove tape from the one side to glue. The tape helps keep the other sides tight until you glue the sides down. Make sure you pulled the last side you glue tight.

Ribbon for the holders:

Next, use thick wide and sturdy ribbon to use to clip hair bows to. First, cut ribbon longer than needed and tape to the back. I did 4 pieces of ribbon but this will vary greatly depending on the size of your picture frame. The larger the picture frame the more the rows of ribbon you can tape down. Also make sure they are taped evenly apart. I doubled taped by taping the front of the fabric and also the rear to make sure it is pulled tight.

Note: You do not want a lot of slack in the ribbon.

Remove the tape on the back and superglue the ribbon onto the cardboard. Once complete gluing all ends onto the cardboard flip over the fabric board and remove all tape from the front of the fabric.

Optional Wooden Stoppers:

I found wooden pieces to make jewelry to act as stoppers to avoid bows to slide down. We glued the wooden pieces in a pattern on the ribbon. Now that you are done gluing just stick the fabric board into the frame.

Optional Bottom of Frame Hooks:

On the bottom of the frame, take screw hooks and screw into frame on the bottom. These are good for the hair bands that do not have clips to clip onto the ribbon.

Now hang frame in the child’s room.
