Hairbow Template?

[Littlebowpeeps]

Hi,
I've seen these before, but don't where to get them or how to make them? Does anyone know how to make, or where to get templates to make boutique hair bows? I do them by hand right now, but I think a template would be a luxury!

I'm not sure if you mean a pre-made template but if so I would suggest the Brilliant Bow Maker....I love it! Also No Bow No Go I have both of them and use each for different styles. HTH

Hi, i purchased the No bow no go and love it but my pinwheels just don't look like the ones they sell on hip girl.. they are folded differently. i love the pinwheel i get from this template but after comparing the finished bows to the ones i bought off of hip girl, i like the way those are folded, they give it a different look. Since you have both brilliant bowmaker and nobownogo, i was wondering if you noiced the differeence?

Ok, thanks! I'll have to check those out. Is there one you like better?

The NBNG template is what I use for the pinwheel. I think if you don't fold at a sharp angle you will get the look you want, try that I do both sharp angle and more across if you want the look of the HG one. HTH

Oh thanks, It just seems like the HG pinwheel is creased differently at the center and you know how when we wrap the ribbon around the nobonogo, the ribbon does not over lap, well on the HG one it looks like they over lapped the ribbon a little bit. IDK if i'm explaining myself clearly, but i'll show you. let me just post a picture of the 2.

ok the red one is from HG and the other one i made with the template, you see the difference in the center crease?

I bought the Nobow..Nogo and i love them...I only like doing pinwheel and boutique bows on those, I'm not sure if the brilliant bow maker has different style bows but i heard that one is really good too.HTH

I don't see the difference in the crease...you did a great job with yours it looks identical!

The only difference in the creases, that I see, is that there are a couple of more creases from stitching the NBNG pinwheel. It looks like the HG one is folded and wrapped, or just wrapped. Otherwise, they look identical
