Instructions for the project: Cut the 1″ wide gold ribbon to a length of about 4 inches. Cut the 5/8″ medium ribbon twice as long (about 8 inches). Carefully using the low temp glue gun, glue the wide ribbons cut edges together. Then move on to glue the medium wide ribbon’s cut edges together. Tie one end of the cord tightly (to squeeze into bow shape) around the middle of the medium wide ribbon over both layers. Loop the cord over other end and hot glue to where you tied it, to make loop in back. Glue the medium ribbon (wings) to top back of wide ribbon (skirt). Draw eyes and mouth on bead with permanent marker. Glue the hair on top. Glue bead (head) to top of ensemble (will have little fold place on top of wings, where it was squeezed by cord).
