Scrapbuster Bow Hairtie

I saw this cute Oliver + S Bow Hair Tie but wanted something that was a bit more scrap friendly, especially if you've got surplus 2 1/2 inch strips, so I made some similar but different:

Read on if you want to make some yourself.


You'll need:

• two rectangular scraps measuring 2 1/2 inch x 6 inch long
• hairtie

How-to:

• Place scraps right sides together and sew around edges leaving an inch-wide hole for turning.
• Trim corners, turn right sides out, press and sew hole closed.
• Knot onto hairtie and pull/push/twist til you have a pleasing bow shape.

How easy is that?
