Braided hair in a braid with a beautiful bow always looks elegant, but they can come loose during a children's holiday. The bezel perfectly holds children's hair, while maintaining a hairstyle. Therefore, the best option for young beauties would be a bezel with an elegant bow fixed on it.

For the manufacture of the rim will require the following materials:
- A wide rim of orange.
- glue gun.
- scissors.
- satin yellow ribbon.
- crepe ribbon of gold color, not more than 0.5 cm wide.
- lighter.

The rim creation sequence. Cut a yellow tape with a width of at least 5 cm into elongated segments. In total, they should be prepared 18 pieces, the size of which is 7x5 cm.

Now from each part we create petals for the rim. We divide the long side of the rectangle in half and fold it in half along this line, combining both slices together.

Holding the part with the finger of our left hand, we gently make several small folds along the raw sections. We fix the folds in this position, singeing the edges with fire, while soldering the tape layers and burning the cut.

We get such a magnificent petal, now from the remaining rectangles we create the same details.

Now you need a rep ribbon with golden threads. We cut it into small pieces each 4 cm long. In total, we prepare 16 of them.

Then we fold the segment in half and glue the narrow edges together, while fixing the addition.

As a result, we get a small loop. Now paste it on top of the prepared yellow petal.

With the remaining petals, repeat this action. But at the end of the work, two parts made of a yellow ribbon will remain without adding a golden loop. Now proceed to connecting the two halves of the bow. For this, we prepare two parts from a yellow tape, the sides of which are 6.5x5 cm.

We singe all sections with a lighter flame. Further, on the front side of this part, glue three yellow petals, placing them even next to each other, slightly overlapping the edges.

Then we glue the second row of yellow parts, fixing them like the previous ones.

In the third row we attach only two petals, so that only their upper corners are superimposed.

Now we take the petal without adding a golden ribbon and attach it to the remaining space of the base part.

The first half of the bow is ready, proceed to creating the second, the same, following the entire sequence.

Then we take a wide rim for hair, stepping back from one edge of 5 cm, carefully attach the first half of the bow. We place it with the wide side to the edge of the rim. Then we attach the second half of the bow, combining their narrow sides.
