Oh boy, have I got a treat for you today! I stumbled upon the cutest little bow template and just had to share it with all you fabulous folks. I mean, who doesn’t love a good bow? It’s like the cherry on top of any outfit!
Check out this adorable bow!
Isn’t it just the sweetest thing you’ve ever seen? I can already picture all the lovely bows I’m going to make with this template. The possibilities are endless!
Let’s get down to business
Now, for all you crafty people out there who are just itching to get started like me, here’s what you’ll need to create your own beautiful bow:
- Bow template (duh!)
- Fabric of your choice (I personally love polka dots)
- Scissors
- Hot glue gun
- Alligator clip or hair band to attach the bow to
Step-by-step instructions
1. Start by printing out the bow template on a piece of paper. Make sure to print it out at the actual size so that your bow turns out just right.
2. Cut out the bow template and use it to trace the bow shape onto your fabric. You’ll need two identical pieces for the front and back of the bow.
3. Cut out the fabric pieces using your trusty pair of scissors.
4. Place the two fabric pieces with the right sides facing each other and glue along the edges, leaving a small opening to turn the bow right side out.
5. Once you’ve turned the bow right side out, carefully fold it in half and glue the two ends together.
6. Pinch the middle of the bow and wrap a small piece of fabric around it to cover the glued ends. Glue this piece of fabric in place.
7. Finally, attach your alligator clip or hair band to the back of the bow using your hot glue gun.
Voila! Your beautiful new bow is ready to wear.
The possibilities are endless
Now that you’ve got the basic bow-making technique down, there are so many ways to customize your bows and make them truly one-of-a-kind. Here are just a few ideas to get you started:
- Use different fabrics for different occasions (like Christmas plaid for the holidays or floral patterns for spring).
- Add a cute button or jewel to the center of the bow for some extra bling.
- Experiment with different sizes of bows. Tiny bows can be cute accents on shoes or purses, while larger bows can make a bold statement on a headband or hat.
This bow template is a game-changer
I don’t know about you, but before I found this bow template, my bow-making game was seriously lacking. I would try to freehand the bow shape and it always ended up looking wonky or uneven. But with this template, my bows are now on point every time!
Plus, the fact that this template is free and easily accessible online is just the icing on the cake. Who knew that something so simple could make such a big difference in my crafting life?
In conclusion…

So get out your fabric and hot glue gun and start making some bows! I promise you won’t regret it.
Until next time, happy crafting!
