Contributor post by Cassie Hey y'all, it is Cassie from CuppyCake GumDrop Boutique & More! Today we will be making this adorable woven metal snap clip with a mini korker. Items needed for this project are: 1/8" Korkers 50mm Snap Clips Hot glue Needled & Thread {{ yes we NEED this }} Scissors Bamboo Skewers Lighter Measuring tool Hotglue gun * Part 1: Woven Clip Step 1: Bake your korkers

* I used 12" Bamboo Skewers & Alligator Clips * Preheat your oven at 225 degrees * Lay skewers on a cookie sheet lined with FOIL! * Bake 5-10 minutes. Be sure to keep an eye on them so you don't burn them. All ovens are different so make sure you watch it. Step 2: Gather your supplies while your waiting. * Step 3: Cut your ribbon about 23" long. * Step 4: Heat Seal the ends. * Step 5: Open snap clip, line your ribbon as pictured.

* Step 6: Flip Over and hotglue the ends to the back of the clip.

* Step 7: Flip back over and place the ribbon on the inside of the clip hole.

* Step 8: Take the right ribbon and flip it over the clip and bring back in the center on the opposite side.

* Step 9: Take the left ribbon and flip it over the clip and bring back in the center on the opposite side.

* Step 10: Take the right ribbon and put it inside the clip and bring it through to the opposite side.

* Step 11. Take the left ribbon and put inside the clip and bring it through the opposite side

* Step 12: Push the ribbon up as you go making it tight

- Don't worry about the end of the clip. We will cover that with our mini korker bow :-) * Step 13: Keep repeating Steps 8-12 until your done

* Step 14: As you near the end you will see it gets a bit tougher to do your weaves. Just keep pushing upward to get the rest of your clip wrapped. * Step 15: Now your at the end of the clip. How you finish this off is up to you, but this is how I do it. - Wrap around the clip to the other side.

*** Snap and Move to the side. * Part 2: Mini Korker Bow * Step 1: Gather your supplies Korkers Lighter Needle & thread Scissors

* Step 2: Cut your korker pieces. About 1.5" pieces. Heat seal ALL ends

* Step 3: Get your needle and thread and start putting your korker pieces together. You can use as many or as little as you would like.

* Step 4: When you get your korker the way you want it, cut your needle off of the bow leaving enough thread to tie off your bow.

- Tie a knot several times

* Step 5: Cut off the extra thread

* Step 6: Trim your bow {{ If needed }} - If you trim your korkers make sure you go back through and heat seal those ends! * Step 7: Apply the bow to your clip
