Hair Accessory Tutorial

The best thing about this Hair Accessory Holder is that is is super cute and only took about ten minutes!

I picked up a burlap wrapped canvas board at Walmart in the Art section for about $4.  You could also replace the fabric on  a regular canvas board.
 Decided how many rows you want to make sure they fit.  Don't limit yourself to just one or two kinds of ribbon like me, get creative!
 Measure & mark for ribbon placement.  A glue gun works great, but it will depend on your material i.e. fabric or wood.  Could also use flat push pins or nails.
 These little hooks are so simple to use that after the initial push in my 6 year old daughter finished them up.  Found in the hardware store at Walmart.  We don't have much more available to us when it comes to supply outlets.
Lastly is to fasten a ribbon on it for hanging.  I tied the Ribbon first and them tied the ends onto nails.
