Why You'll Love This Just As Much As Your Pet!

Matching Pigtail Bows Tutorial!

Making the pigtail bows is simple to do with any of our types of ribbon! Grosgrain, satin, scalloped, printed grosgrain, etc. Here is how we made ours with grosgrain.

 

We cut two pieces of grosgrain, each 6" long.

Then, we folded the edges into the middle and used hot glue to secure them there. And made two of those!

Now that you have both pieces, stack them in an X shape and scrunch them together. 

Secure it with a zip tie!

You can attach a hair clip or a nylon headband if your pup is short haired!

Then, wrap a piece of 3/8" ribbon around the middle as the centerpiece. 

Make two if you want a pigtail set, and then you're done!
