Our Bowdabra Hair Bow Tool & Ruler allows you to stack ribbon sprays and ribbon bows one on top of the other all the way to the top of the
Mini Bowdabra Towers. Today, our Bowdabra Blog will share with you a detailed step-by-step tutorial for making a Halloween Stacked Hair Bow. Choose vibrant colors like yellow, orange, purple, and white grosgrain ribbons for a festive Halloween Hair Bow.
Materials Needed:
- 7/8″ Orange Grosgrain
- 7/8″ Purple Grosgrain
- 7/8″ Yellow Grosgrain
- 7/8″ White Grosgrain
- 3/8″ White Grosgrain
- Orange Stitched Bobbin Ribbon
- Mini Bowdabra
- Hair Bow Tool & Ruler
- Bowdabra Bow Wire
- French Hair Clip
Instructions:
1. Begin by placing the Hair Bow Tool & Ruler on top of the Mini Bowdabra. Cut a piece of Bowdabra Bow Wire 18″ long, fold it in half and place it into the Mini Bowdabra towers.
2. Cut 6″ long dovetailed strips of 7/8″ white, orange, yellow, and purple grosgrain ribbons. Cut 2 each of each color. Fold them in half at the center crease mark place them into the Mini Bowdabra.
3. Create large 2.5″ loops on each side of the Mini Bowdabra with the orange bobbin ribbon. Create a total of 4 loops.
4. Create 2″ loops on each side of the Mini Bowdabra using 3/8″ white grosgrain ribbon. Create another 4 loops.
5. Using the interactive Hair Bow Making CD that comes with the Hair Bow Tool & Ruler follow the instructions to make a 4″ wide Boutique Bow.
6. Add an orange grosgrain dovetailed spray.
7. Scrunch down with the Mini Bowdabra Wand.
8. Leave the bow in the Mini Bowdabra for now. Thread the 2 loose ends of the Bowdabra Bow Wire through the loop at the other end.
9. Pull the Bowdabra Bow Wire tightly while the bow is still in the Mini Bowdabra.
10. Gently pull the bow out of the Mini Bowdabra. Separate the two loose ends of the Bowdabra Bow Wire and bring them around to the back of the bow and knot.
11. Using the Bowdabra Bow Wire tie the bow to a large French Clip. Trim away excess wire.
12. Create a finishing knot using the 3/8″ wide white grosgrain ribbon. Glue the knot to the center of the Bow to hide the Bowdabra Bow Wire.
13. Your Halloween Stacked Hair Bow is complete and ready to be worn.

I love this stacked hair bow!
Iloved this hair bow and had seen some similiar to this one but didn’t know how they were made. Thanks for the tutorial.
I made my grandaughters some headbands this year that they loved and didn’t take anytime to make. I bought glitter tulle on a roll in black and orange and cut each color in one inch strips or wider. I cut about 10 strips of each color and since I was using the glitter tulle it was stiff enough to stand up real good. I used my bowdabra and placed 1 color in the center and alternating sides and middle I used a different color each time. I mashed it down, then tied it in a knot and tied it in a head band or used a clip. Everyone loves them.
Wendy, your headbands sound gorgeous! Great job!
