Sandy Sandler is here to show you in this easy video how to make the best DIY gift wrap bow in minutes with the Bowdabra. So, let’s get started.
How to make the best DIY gift wrap bow
Materials:
- Bowdabra bow maker
- Bowdabra bow wire
- 7457 buffalo plaid 2 1/2 X 28″ red/black
- 7457 buffalo plaid 2 1/2 X 8’11” red/black
- Decor mesh 3″ x 30″ black
- Decor mesh 3″ x 8’10” black
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, place a piece of décor mesh and a piece of buffalo plaid ribbon together and lay them into the Bowdabra for the tails.
Then, working together with two long pieces of décor mesh and buffalo plaid ribbon, place the ends in the Bowdabra twisting so that the right side is facing up. Continue twisting and making loops with the two ribbons together. Make sure the loops are around the same size by raising and measuring the loops.
Keep twisting and making loops until you reach the end of your ribbons.
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 arrange your bow. You will have the best DIY gift wrap bow! You can also use this bow for a great tree topper!
