To make this wreath, first, take your flowers of choice and begin inserting them into the Bowdabra. Then, keep adding flowers. Remember, with Bowdabra you are able to add a lot of florals!

Next, make the bow. Using a complementary spring ribbon begin making a loopy bow. Then, add more flowers. Make another bow.
To finish, use a zip tie to secure all the flowers and bows. Add to your wreath with some hot glue. Continue adding more florals and bows as desired securing with Bowdabra bow wire and tying to the wreath.
