Easy Felt Bow Ties #Diy For #Valentines or Anytime

Dear Creatives, With Valentine Day quickly approaching I thought I would create some Valentine Bow Ties. I wanted the Valentine Bow Ties to be easy. I had left over felt from doing the heart banners so I decided to make a few different ones for the kids. The felt bow ties are super easy you can create some yourself. I have seen other bow tie diy’s & shared them here before. But this is felt,  no sew & very easy project Felt Bow Tie project.

What kind of supplies you need can range from what you have on hand to purchasing felt from a craft store or a wool blend felt or 100% wool felt. Use ribbons & String or twine. Glittery hearts & cut out felt. A good craft glue that dries clear & is for working with fabric.  Alligator clips & bin backs. Maybe a hot glue gun & tweezers if you like. In a manner of a half an hour you can have many or in as little as 5 minutes you can have one or two for those special Valentines you love! But, here is a list of basics:

• Felt
• String, Ribbon or Twine
• Craft glue for fabric that dries clear
• Glue gun (another option) & tweezers
• Alligator clips
• Pin backs

1. First cut out your felt about 41/2″ x 2 1/2″ but, you can make them any size. This size is small for a toddler or as a broach type pin
2. Cut ribbon about 4″ or string about 12″ .
3. Then pinch in the center.
4. Wrap string around pinched felt.
5. Tie a knot in the back. Either use an alligator clip or hot glue a pin backing.
6. Make variations play with fabrics, strings add glittery hearts or cut out felt hearts.
7. Give it to someone you love!

Some sweet Valentine has my heart on a string! & I have someone forever in my heart too! Do you?

At about 40 cents a piece of felt at Michaels this might just look good on attached to a piece of card-stock for a Valentine for Sammie to give out to her special friends.

I have been having camera problems & saving for a new one. I took these with my phone. The Mr. knows I am wanting a new one & has been selling items he no longer wants in the garage to help. {sigh} Maybe soon! Hope you enjoy this easy p easy project! PS. I made a few felt bow ties that were even smaller & attached them to goody hair bands. Just another idea for you. I hope to share those soon.
