Let’s make the Autumn Centerpiece Wreath:

  1. First, fill the vase with the web tubing and the string of twinkle lights. Set this aside for now.Fill Vase with Web Tubing and Lights
  2. Now, we’ll make the bow. Fold the 18″ length of bow wire in half and place it in the Bowdabra. You can tuck the wire ends under the Bowdabra so they are out of the way.Wire in Bowdabra Gold
  3. Next, lay the lengths of tulle on top of one another, and scrunch them into the Bowdabra.Scrunch Tulle into Bowdabra
  4. Make a fold bow on top of the tulle with one of the wired ribbon lengths.Fold Bow with Wired Ribbon
  5. Compress the tulle and ribbon with the Bowdabra wand.Compress Ribbon and Tulle with Wand
  6. With the tulle and ribbon still in the Bowdabra, pass the ends of the bow wire through the loop, and tighten. Tie a secure knot on the back of the bow, leaving the wire ends long.Pass Wire Ends through Loop
  7. Fluff the bow and arrange individual loops of the bow.Fluff Bow
  8. Wrap the wreath with the remaining length of wired ribbon.Wrap Wreath with Wired Ribbon
