![I needed the following materials](https://i.washerhouse.com/images/10/1830-mne-ponadobilis-sleduyuschie-materialy.jpg)
-satin ribbon 2.5 cm wide. By the way, I used a purple ribbon, but the flash on the camera decided that it would be better to be blue.
-pencil, ruler, scissors;
-lighter. I used it to light a candle - it turned out much more economical;
-stamens. I just collected all the leftovers that were in the suitcase.
First of all, I decided to prepare all the components of the future bow. To do this, cut the tape into 5cm pieces.

It took me about 100 petals to make the bow. The most labor-intensive and monotonous process begins - the formation of a petal. Each segment must be cut from one edge in a semicircle.
![need to be cut from one edge](https://i.washerhouse.com/images/10/1832-nuzhno-obrezat-s-odnogo-kraya.jpg)
Now comes the most important part. The rounded edge of the petal needs to be heated a little over the fire, and carefully try to stretch it in different directions. It's better to do one side first and then the other.

Let's take care of the bottom edge.Its corners need to be overlapped with the right sides inward and the bottom edge should be soldered over fire. We get such an interesting petal.

In order not to interrupt work at the most crucial moment, I decided to make petals from all the segments.

I decided to place stamens in a couple of petals.

Somewhere there were a couple, somewhere more. Let's start assembling the flower itself. To do this, we use two leather circles with a diameter of 5 cm.

We glue the first row of ordinary petals with a glue gun onto the edge from 0.5 to 1 cm.
![stick it on](https://i.washerhouse.com/images/10/1838-nakleivaem.jpg)
The second layer also consists of ordinary petals, but it needs to be glued between the petals of the first row, as if in a checkerboard pattern.

The third and fourth rows are glued using the same method. The main rule is not to move them to the center. In other words, the diameter of the center should be the same in both the first and fourth rows. Thanks to this move, the petals in the last rows, due to their size, create additional volume, and the bow turns out lush.

Let's start gluing the middle. We glue the fifth row not to the top, but to the base. For better fastening, you can apply a drop of glue to the bottom of the back side of the petal and glue it to the wall resulting from the previous rows.

I fill the next row with petals with stamens.

A small circle remains.
![small circle](https://i.washerhouse.com/images/10/1845-malenkiy-kruzhok.jpg)
I simply filled it with glue and inserted the remaining petals with stamens into it.

When the bow itself is ready, it’s worth thinking about attaching it. To do this, I decided to use a second circle of leather, a stationery knife and a base for a hairpin.
![use a second leather circle](https://i.washerhouse.com/images/10/1847-ispolzovat-vtoroy-kruzhok-iz-kozhi.jpg)
To make the hairpin look as close to the bow as possible, it is better to take it apart.
![it's better to take it apart](https://i.washerhouse.com/images/10/1848-ee-luchshe-razobrat.jpg)
On the back side of the base, using a pencil, make marks equal to the width of the hairpin in the right places.
![make notes](https://i.washerhouse.com/images/10/1849-delaem-otmetki.jpg)
We make slits along them with a stationery knife and carefully pull the edges of the hairpin into them.
![drag the edges of the hairpin through](https://i.washerhouse.com/images/10/1850-protaskivaem-kraya-zakolki.jpg)
Next, glue the base with a hairpin to the base with a bow, and assemble the hairpin.

In the end, here’s a bow.
