Discovering 2014: Present Clippie

Discovering 2014 is a personal goal to complete a daily project throughout the year!

Today's project was a Present Clippie. For this you need 1.5" grosgrain ribbon (for the present), 1/4" ribbon (for the ribbon wrapped around) and 1/8" silk ribbon (for the tiny bow). The lengths of these will depend on how large you want to make the present, though I recommend about 2-3" long for the 1.5" ribbon.

Hot glue the ends of the 1.5" ribbon, and lightly hot glue the open edges to seal them shut. Use 1/4" ribbon to wrap around the present, hot gluing it shut (make sure it ends on the backside so the hot glue is not in plain sight!). Tie your other 1/8" ribbon into a tiny bow and carefully hot glue it on the front side of the present.

Attach the present to your covered hair clip and you're done! You could also use 2" grosgrain ribbon for the present if you prefer something larger!
