Do you have a wedding coming up? Fall is a wonderful time for weddings. The weather is beautiful and cool. Sandy Sandler is here to show you how to decorate with the most beautiful lace and organza pew bow that you can make with Bowdabra in just minutes! So let’s get started!
How to make this beautiful and elegant lace and organza pew bow
Materials:
- Bowdabra Bow Maker
- Silver Bowdabra Bow Wire
- 2.5″ Wide Lace Ribbon 05250-14, 30 inches
- 2.5″ Wide Sheer Wired Ribbon, 30 inches
- 114” of both ribbons for the bow
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.
Now, angle cut in lieu of dovetails a 30” length of each ribbon lace and sheer for the tails. Working with the two ribbons together find the center and place them into the Bowdabra.
Next, place the long length of both ribbons together, lay them in the Bowdabra, and twist to make a loop. Continue twisting and making loops till you reach the end of the ribbons. (fold your loops up together to make sure they are the same size)
When you reach the last amount of ribbon make a half loop which will be your button or floral loop.
Use the Bowdabra wand to scrunch everything down. Pull the wire up and through the slipknot loop. Hold everything down tight while the bow is still in the Bowdabra. Remove it and turn to the back, separate the ends and tie a knot and a double knot.
Remember, the only place you can purchase a genuine Bowdabra is at Hobby Lobby, Amazon, or Bowdabra. Fluff and arrange your loops and bow. You have an adorable lace and organza pew bow that you can use for the backs of chairs, pews, and even wedding gifts!
