I am trying to make bows, help

[raindropsies]

Loom bands is one of the big crazes this year (along with Frozen)
Good thing with loom bands is they are very cheap and not as messy as one may expect.
My 2 girls are always doing their loom bands but our lad, simply don't like them.

Regards the bows, I saw someone years ago make some very tiny bows with some cocktail sticks and double sided tape, no idea on how they did it.

Have any crafter any tips on how to make tiny bows out of 3mm ribbon as mine are turning out like screwed up balls and I am getting very ratty. I have green and red 3mm ribbon and it seems a shame to waste it and but them.

Will send PM buttons.

It's called "Loom bands" and the whole world has gone crazy for it.

Just seen a news report on loom bands stating they are dangerous, particularly to children, due to the chemicals used in softening the rubber. Also a few cases of children ingesting them.

As usual: not for very small children and of course the older ones should know better than to stick them into their mouths. And parental supervision, but that might be asking too much
