Here is an easy way to make hair bows. 
The yellow polka dot one is 18 inches and the blue one I think is around 10. I would recommend making them bigger. We had to make 40 for choir and we were limited on ribbon.
Start with two loops
Tie the other ribbon around the middle of the loops. 
Ruffle the loops out to a bow shape and cut the edges of the ribbon. Now you have your final bow!
Attach a clip or hairband to finish it off!

Creative gifts part 2!
If you haven’t seen Creative gifts check it out in the crafting and holiday category!
Here is the Money Flower
It’s super easy too! All you need is string and 15 $1 bills.
Roll 14 of the bills into rolls
And then put them through a string for your necklace. Now you have the flower to do
Fold the bill like a fan, and make it into a bow. Make the bow fuller by taping the edges into a flower shape. Finish it up with a piece of tape to the necklace!
If you have any questions email us at cheronchicblog@yahoo.com
If you are confused with the flower, comment or email us and we could post a video tutorial if we need to.

The typical Fall season consists of pumpkin carving, but carving a pumpkin is really difficult and you need tools and time and all together not an easy tradition…
It’s time to spice it up! Try painting pumpkins instead!
Just go for it! Do whatever you want with it! It’s really fun too. I did chevron because I really like chevron (You probably considered we did) but the possibilities are endless!

Here is how you make your sheet music look antique.
All you need is a pan, sheet music and tea or coffee. We used tea just because it was the only thing available.
Crumple up the paper a little bit and soak it in the tea. The longer you soak it, the browner it gets. We only did it for an hour but I recommend you soak it longer than that.
I know it isn’t that brown but with longer soaking it will be really great I know it 🙂
There are so many things you could use this for, and we will be looking around for one to show you. Be creative with it too! If you have a craft to make with this, or want to show us your results after letting it soak longer, please email us at chevronchicblog@yahoo.com
Thanks and have a wonderful Sunday!
