Ribbon Princess Tutorial - Cinderella

A while ago I saw a hair clip at the department store that was a girl made out of ribbons. It was sooo cute, but too pricey for what it was. So I searched online for samples and I found that they even have the Disney princesses versions! While most people sell their hand made ribbon princess, one lady was nice enough to share a tutorial for 13 different princesses. How awesome is that! You can see her tutorials at Grosgrain Fabulous.

I bought my gross grain ribbon online at Pusat Grosir Pita. They have good selection and if you are in Indonesia I do recommend them.

I made this Cinderella following her tutorial with a slight difference in how I attach the hair. I hope you like it!

This is what you need:


Flesh colored: 2¼ ", 3"
Yellow: 1¼", 2 " Light Blue: 2", 1¼ ", five pieces of 4"White: two pieces of 1", two pieces of 2½" 
Glue (I used UHU)
Hairspray (because I didn't have any no-fray spray)



  • Take the longer flesh colour strip, roll one end to make the head and glue.


  • Take the shorter yellow strip, fold it in half and glue the end. This is her bang.


  • Glue the bang to the top of the head like so.


  • Take the other yellow strip and the light blue strip with the same length, and glue them together like so.


  • Glue the ends together to make a shape like this, make sure that the yellow strip is on the outside. This will be the rest of her hair and her blue head band.


  • Attach the hair to the head and bang like so.


  • Take the shortest blue strip and glue to the back of her body. Bring the other end around the front and glue at the back to make a bodice. Leave enough room for her skirt to go in.


  • Take the other flesh colour strip, cut the ends to a rounded shape. Spray with hairspray to prevent fraying. This will also stiffen the ribbon and that is good for arms. Attach this strip at the back of the bodice.


  • Take the 2 short white strips and glue them to the back of the arms, loop around, and glue again. These are her sleeves.


  • Pinch the rest of the strips in half and glue the end.


  • Glue the blue pieces together, keeping the ends at one point in a fan shape. Then attach the two white pieces on top.


  • Glue the skirt to the rest of the body. Voila!


I attached it on a hair pin instead of a head band.

Nintendo Switch Sleeve Tutorial

Hi! I'm Kirana from woofkiki.blogspot.co.id . I am going to write an introduction for this blog post. We bought a Nintendo Switch in Japan.  I really liked it and played with it almost everyday. If you're wondering what a Nintendo Switch is, it is a video game where you can basically  "switch" everything. The joy-cons and even the game! You can also connect it to your TV. It would be nice to bring it around with you, but when you put it in your bag... Oh no! The screen scratched! So, this is a sleeve that will fix that. Let's get started!😊 Kirana Now the tutorial (by Kirana's mom)... 1. Make your pattern according to the picture below. It is basically a 6"x24" rectangle with a semi circle at one end. Note: this is not a printable pattern 1. Cut your outer fabric, lining, and batting(optional). In this tutorial, I used minky for lining and a pre-quilted fabric for the cover, so I didn't need extra batting. For batting, I recomm...

Spring in Egypt Part 9 - Luxor Temple

At the time when we arrived at Luxor temple it was already after dusk and it became a little difficult to take photos. I compensated by setting my camera ISO to 4000 to make tripod-less picture-taking possible even though the grains became more visible. Just like the previous nights, the moon still looked round to me. I wasn't sure which one of those moons was the actual full moon. We walked around the temple first with Michael for explanations about the temple. In the distance we were able to hear the adzan calling the people for prayer. Situated in the east bank, the construction of the temple was started by Amenhotep III, continued and finished by the famous King Tut and Horemheb, and then added on to by Rameses II and finally by Alexander the Great. Unlike the other temples we had previously visited, this temple is not dedicated to a single cult/god. Instead, it is used as a place to rejuvenate kingship. May of the kings were said to have been coronated at this temple. ...

Japan Winter Holiday 2017 Part 7 - Otaru Sakaimachi

On our second day in Otaru after we had breakfast and ice cream , we continued walking to Sakaimachi. This shopping street is one of the busiest in the city and is where a lot of Otaru attraction is located. In front of one of the stores there, we saw this cute dog wearing a Minion outfit. Of course Miss Kiki jumped and squealed and asked if she could pet it. We asked permission from the owner to take a picture with it. Along the street they have rock statues in the shape of famous characters like Anpanman and Mickey Mouse. With Anpanman It was a very nice day, we were able to walk around and had fun without feeling cold even though there were a lot of ice and snow. Check out the platforms they set up on the hill. We think that it's to prevent snow slides... Most of the buildings there were old style,,,  Many shops sell fresh seafood and they would cook it for you by order. As we walked past a souvenir shop, we saw a poster for these snowball make...
