Super simple funky spring wreath bow
Materials:
- Bowdabra
- Bowdabra bow wire
- Yellow posies wired ribbon
- Solid yellow burlap ribbon
- Pink posies wired ribbon
- Solid green burlap ribbon
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.
Cut all your ribbon strips and dovetail the ends. To dovetail, fold the ribbon in half and cut at an angle away from the fold.
Next, take a length of the yellow posies ribbon and the yellow burlap ribbon and place them together. Now, cross them over so that the right sides are facing up and lay them in the Bowdabra.
Repeat the above step with another two ribbons, folding, crossing over with right sides up and place in the Bowdabra with the loop side opposite from the first one. Repeat this step one more time.
Now, using the pink posies ribbon and the green burlap ribbon. Working with the two ribbons fold it over making sure the right sides are up and lay them in the Bowdabra. Repeat one more time.
Take the Bowdabra wand and 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 bow from the Bowdabra, separate the ends, turn to the back and tie a knot. Tie a double knot for extra security.
Finally fluff and arrange your bow.
You have a beautiful spring funky bow that can be used for wreaths, table centerpiece, mantle décor and more.
