Over Sized Bow Tie Necklace - No Sew




Here is a cute over sized bow tie necklace. You could also make a smaller one if this is too big.

Step One Cut a square of fabric (depending on the size you want mine was roughly 24cm x 24cm )

Step Two  With the back of the fabric facing upwards, paint a line of mod podge along the centre length ways. Fold the top long edge of the fabric over to the middle. Then take the bottom of the fabric and meet this in the middle.
Step Three  Fold the outside edges into the centre and secure with mod podge.

Step Four  Flip over fabric and pinch it in the centre to create little folds, place mod podge in between folds and pinch again.

Step Five  Get another long strip of fabric, thinner than the square you started with and complete steps two and three.


Step Six  Wrap the fabric around the centre of the bow and secure at the back with mod podge.

Step Seven  Pierce the two top corners to create a hole big enough for a jump ring. I used a mini hook to do this.

Step Eight  Secure a jump ring in each hole and place through the ring of a necklace. Secure shut jump ring with pliers.

And You're Done!!
