Bridal Showers are so much fun! We love giving little treats to those who attend. These “open in case of emergency” candy bags were a huge hit at the last one we set up for. This treat bag can be filled with the bridal party colors. Use this same idea for the actual wedding, baby showers, office parties and more!

6. Cut strips of coordinating scrap ribbon and place them one at a time into the center of the Mini Bowdabra to match the colors of your event. Add the tag on top of that.

9. While the bow is still in the Mini Bowdabra, thread the two loose ends of the Mini Bowdabra Bow Wire through the loop at the other end. Pull the Bowdabra Bow Wire tightly while the bow is still in the Mini Bowdabra. Gently pull the bow out of the Mini Bowdabra and knot it off.
