How to make a delightful door sign bow with Bowdabra

I’m Joette from the Bowdabra Design Team, ready to create a delightful door sign bow! Join me as I showcase how to make a beautiful, eye-catching bow quickly and effortlessly using the Bowdabra. Let’s add a festive touch to your decor together!

Materials for the bow:

3 – 1.5” wide, 7” long wired ribbon, dovetailed

2 – 2.5” wide, 5” long wired ribbon, dovetailed

1 – 2.5” wide, 5” long wired ribbon, dovetailed

Bowdabra Bow Wire

Mini Bowdabra

Dollar Tree sign

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, find the center of pre-dovetailed scraps of ribbon and place them in the Mini Bowdabra.

Place them in an X pattern to shape the bow as you go.

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.

Fluff and shape the door sign bow, and use the excess wire to attach it to the door sign hanger.

This bow would be perfect to use on small gifts, hair bows, and more when you need a quick and easy bow!
