That is really amazing. I can tell a slight difference, but just because of the shape. I like it! It's different!

That's really nice and full. I can tell a difference too by the shape of it. Great job!

Ok, so I'm a newbie here...what is "wrong" with it??? I think it's cute!
I made my first korker ribbon last night and realized the dowel rod I have is way too large...grumble, that means a 50 mile round trip to WM.

Years ago this is how I made all my korkers, I even cut the ribbon longer, and it dangled down over the pony tail. When I first began making bows, all we had were the french barrettes. The long ones were very popular for cheerleaders, but took tons of ribbon to make one good and full. I love this, round ones sometimes look a little boring.

Yes when i first made it, it was really long and i was going to keep it like that but i thought that people might like it a little more polished and yes lots and lots of korkers where needed!

it is really cute! I like the oval shape for ponytails. One day DD will have enough hair for something like that.

I love the oval shape of it! Very unique!
I had a really hard time too when I started making korkers, but now I love them. I just wish I could MAKE SOMETHING ELSE :banghead:...I mean come on already! Even my DD says, "No more cupcakes for my hair Mommy!" That is what she calls korker bows, "cupcakes for my hair".
Anyway, I think it way pretty Shanna...I would never guess that you have a hard time with korkers, lol.

I really like it! I have a heck of a time with korkers too. It must have to do with tightening the string? That's my best guess. Great way to change it up though!

Korkers are my enemy. Guess what my sister-in-law requested for my niece? UGH!
