Ariel Princess Inspired Hairbow!

Ariel Princess Inspired Hairbow!
The Little Mermaid...possibly one of the first movies I actually
remember seeing at the movie theater!  1989, so I was nearly 9.

I like the subtle approach to a princessy Ariel...rather than the whole shell bikini thing.
So here's a good inspiration picture.

I used teal, aqua, purple.
I use satin ribbon from Papermart...it's a great quality and price point.
 They don't compensate me, I just want to make sure you are getting the best price.
I used 36 inches of 1.5 inch teal, 1 inch aqua and 7/8 inch purple.
I planned on using a shabby aqua flower but ended up not using it.
I used a shabby purple flower and rhinestone button.

Gather the center of the ribbon and wrap in thread.
Full tutorial for gathering ribbon here

Stack and hot glue together.
Wrap with thick thread.

Hot glue the flower center to the middle!

Now finish off the back.
You can hot glue a clip onto it, or a headband...
Or finish it off this way for way more versatility!

It doesn't scream "I am a Disney Princess!!!"
But it's cute, and could totally make a nod to The Little Mermaid!
No seashells needed!
