How to make a perfect patriotic hair bow with Bowdabra

Materials:
  • Bowdabra
  • Bowdabra bow wire
  • Mini Bowdabra ruler attachment
  • Red wired ribbon
  • Blue wired ribbon

Instructions:

First, place the ruler attachment onto the Mini Bowdabra with the centimeter side facing up. Next, 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.

Now, working together with blue and red ribbon lay the ends into the Mini Bowdabra.  Twist and bring a loop across to the 5cm line. Twist and bring across to the opposite side jut to the 5cm line as before.

Now twist and bring another loop across but only to the 3.5cm line. Scrunch into the Bowdabra. Twist and bring the rest of ribbon across stopping at the 3.5cm line.

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.

Arrange your bow and pull apart and separate the ribbons fluffing as you go.

Add a pony tail holder, clip or optionally use as several as table scatter for a party!
