Have you always wanted to know how to make a bow?  I love, love, love making bows!  I start making Christmas bows in October!  I have created a video with step-by-step instructions on how to make three different bows.

Four Looped Wired Bow

Don’t you adore this ribbon?  It is a very thick cloth material with wired edges.  Here is my advice about choosing ribbon;  for 9 out of 10 of the bows I make, I choose wired ribbon.  It does cost more, but you can reshape it so easily.  And if you are making a holiday bow for a wreath, and you pack your wreath away at the end of the season, when you unpack it the next year, it is very easy to reshape the bow!

Christmas Bow Using Two Ribbons

Isn’t this a yummy bow?  The red and lime green ribbon is SO beautiful.  I paired it with a glittery gold wired ribbon.   When I make Christmas bows, I usually try to add a sparkly ribbon so that the Christmas lights sparkle off of the bow.

Wedding Bow – Extra Wide Ribbon

I recently decorated a wedding, and I used extra wide ribbon to make several bows.  I still chose wired ribbon.  Don’t be intimidated by extra wide ribbon, it really isn’t difficult to work with!

So, check out my video if you want to learn how to make a bow!  Have a great day!
