How to Create a Rustic Christmas Wreath with Bowdabra

Hi everyone, Steph Ackerman here showing you how to create a Rustic Christmas Wreath with the Bowdabra.

How to – Rustic Christmas Wreath

Supplies:

Bowdabra Bow Making Tool
Bowdabra Bow Wire
Ribbon
Christmas picks

Instructions:

I began by wrapping a foam wreath with ribbon.
Next, I placed the picks on the wreath then wrapped them with additional ribbon.

Make your bow

First, cut a piece of Bowdabra bow wire, fold it in half and lay it in the Bowdabra.  Next, I placed the Bow Wire underneath  to stay out of the way while I created my bow. (slipknot)
I cut a length of ribbon approximately 12″ in length then placed it in the Bowdabra.

I then proceeded to create a 5 looped bow.

Using the Bow Wand, I pushed the loops into the channel.

I insert the two loose wires through the loop of my slipknot and Pull up on the Bow Wire, I removed the bow and tied a knot.  Tie a second knot for extra security.

Fluffing out and arrange the bow, I used the left over Bow Wire to tie the bow to the wreath.

Thanks for stopping by.
