How to make scrunchy ribbon flowers for St. Patrick’s Day
Materials:
Two 20″ strips of Morex Gleem ribbon in green and gold
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, take two pieces of Morex gleam ribbon in gold and green together and scrunch into the Bowdabra vertically like you would an accordion.
Now, use the Bowdabra wand to scrunch everything down. Then, insert the loose wires through the loop and pull tight while the bow is still in the Bowdabra. Then, remove the ribbon flower from the Bowdabra, separate the ends, turn to the back and either tie a knot or twist to secure.
Finally, pull apart the ribbons all around. Fluffing to create a little flower. How simple was that?
