Bow Class Taught by Jennifer Grant

The bow making class is on Thursday, October 23 at 6:30pm at the Stake Center. If you plan to attend this class, please select which bow you would like to make and purchase the items specified below the picture of that bow. If you have any questions about the materials please call Jennifer Grant 357-0010.

*Each bow will either need a clip or a cut of stretch elastic for a baby headband.

*Each person will need to purchase covered wire. Fray check is optional.

*If you have scissors and a glue gun, please bring them with you.

I suggest you purchase your materials at Ribbons and Lace (SW corner of Lindsay and Main). They have a HUGE selection of ribbon and they will be able to help you better choose ribbon and materials that will work for your bows. Some ribbon is not well suited for hair bows. They know me there and they will be able to give you good information and ideas for bows. However, this is only a suggestion! There are many patterns, styles and colors of ribbon. You can even bring in your clothing with you to match up with the ribbon.
