PhotobucketPhotobucketYou will need: an (old) hair pin, (velvet) ribbon, a glue gun and a pair of scissors. PhotobucketCut the pieces of ribbon: 1 piece that is slightly bigger than 2 times the length of the hair pin, 2 pieces for the ‘legs’ of the bow, and 1 small piece to wrap around the middle. PhotobucketGlue the longest piece of ribbon together to form a circle with the pretty side on the outside. PhotobucketThen glue the ribbon on the hairpin, with the part that used to be open in the middle. PhotobucketWrap the smallest piece of ribbon around the middle and glue it at the back. PhotobucketGlue the two ‘legs’ on the back too, in a slight angle. PhotobucketCut small triangles out of the ends of the ribbon. You could choose to apply some transparent nail polish to the edges to stop them from fringing. Photobucket

And that’s it! Assuming you have all the materials, this project will take you only 5 minutes. Super quick and super easy!

 Have you been doing any quick and easy DIY lately?

      Sounds great! I actually could use some of those too. I used to make a lot of jewellery myself, haven’t done that in a while. Maybe I should..

      Any time! I love it when you can make something nice in a few minutes and have maximum profit from it, like I have been wearing it already quite a lot afterwards :)
