How to make the best Christmas tree topper bow

Hi everyone! I’m Joette from the Bowdabra Design Team, and today I’ll show you how to create a beautiful Christmas tree topper bow using Bowdabra®. This stunning bow will add the perfect finishing touch to your holiday decor. Let’s get started!

Materials:

• Bowdabra

• Bowdabra Bow Wire

• 3 different coordinating 2.5″ wide wired ribbons

• 2 different coordinating 1.5″ wide wired ribbons

• 7/8″ wide wired ribbon

Instructions:

First, cut a piece of Bowdabra bow wire.  Then, fold it in half and insert it into the Bowdabra.  You will have a loop on one side and two loose wires on the other side.  This will serve as your slipknot. Tuck the ends under to stay out of the way while you are making your bow.

Next, lay a long length of ribbon for the tails.  Now, using another ribbon, fold to find the center and then place it in the Bowdabra.  Bring one side across and scrunch in, and then repeat with the other side.

Place a long strip of peacock ribbon in the Bowdabra for the tails. Now, repeat the same process as before, finding the center and bringing both sides across to make loops. (shoe bow)

Repeat for another shoe bow. Now, using another color ribbon, repeat adding tails and making a shoe bow.

Using the first velvet ribbon, lay another strip for tails.  Follow with the satin ribbon tails and a shoe bow. Continue with another color ribbon, making tails and a shoe bow.

Finally, with the 7/8″ wide ribbon, add tails and a shoe bow. Finish with a button loop using the peacock ribbon.

Now scrunch everything down with the Bowdabra wand.  Then, insert the loose wires through the loop and pull tight while the bow is still in the Bowdabra. Then, remove the bow from the Bowdabra, separate the ends, turn to the back, and tie a knot.  Tie a double knot for extra security.
