How to Make Korker Ribbon Hair Bows

Korker ribbons are ribbons that are made into tight spiral curls. Although you can purchase these ribbons at different craft stores, they can be expensive. Instead of purchasing the ribbons, make them yourself. You can make as many ribbons as you want and in many different colors and styles.

Instructions

    1

    Preheat your oven to 275 degrees Fahrenheit. You will need to bake your ribbon to ensure that it stays in tight curls.

    2

    Place the ribbon at the top of the dowel and secure it with a clothespin.

    3

    Hold onto the bottom of the dowel with your dominant hand. Begin turning the dowel clockwise. Lightly hold the ribbon in between your non-dominant thumb and index finger. Your thumb and index finger will serve as a guide to ensure that the ribbon will twist into a tight spiral.

    4

    Cut excess ribbon that falls past the dowel. Clip another clothespin to the end of the dowel to secure the bottom of the ribbon.

    5

    Repeat steps two through four with as many ribbons as you'd like to make. For one hair bow, you'll need about 30 ribbons.

    6

    Place the dowels onto a cookie sheet, and place them into the preheated oven. Bake the ribbons at 275 degrees Fahrenheit for 25 minutes. Remove the cookie sheet from the oven when the ribbons are finished and set it aside to cool.

    7

    Allow 30 minutes to pass to ensure the ribbons have cooled completely. Remove the clothespins and pull the ribbons off of the dowels.

    8

    Place a string or elastic ribbon on a flat surface. Line the ribbons on top of the string and on top of each other. Make three rows of 10 ribbons each.

    9

    Pull the string up on the sides and over the top of the ribbons. Tie the string into a double knot. The korker ribbons will bunch together and puff out like a pom-pom. Cut any visible string hanging from the middle of the ribbons.

    10

    Slide a barrette through the string in the middle of the ribbons. The clip can now be attached to any ponytail or hairstyle.
