- wooden dowel
- scrapbook paper
- hot glue gun
- Elmers glue stick
- lace or ribbon
Use hot glue to attach ribbon to dowel. Cut an arrow point and an arrow tail and secure them to the ends of the dowel with hot glue.
And that’s all there is to it! To attach mine to the wall, I made a small ribbon loop in the center of the arrow and attached it with more hot glue. Then I nailed one small brad into the wall and hung the arrow from it. I put little pieces of sticky tac (you know, that blue stuff teachers use on posters?) under the arrow head and tail to keep the whole thing from shifting.

That's really sweet and modern. My daughter would have loved this when she was little, sometimes I wish I could go back and make some of the lovely things I see for her – she's 21 now and sadly doesn't wear bows in her hair any more 🙁

They grow up too quickly, don't they? I just have to remind myself of that when I'm cleaning peanut butter fingerprints off my walls. 😂
