Learn how you can easily make this beautiful ribbon flower in the Bowdabra bowmaker. It is so simple it will only take you minutes to make. Here are the materials you will need with links to where you can purchase the main items.
(3) 7”x1.5” Emerald Green Satin Wired Ribbon (leaves)
7” Wide Gold Mesh (3)
11”x1.5” Emerald Green Satin Ribbon
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, feed in the mesh ribbon from the top to make a scrunchy bow.
Now lay in the pieces of green satin wired ribbon which you have cut the edge to a point, shaping as you go.
Then take the white flower petal pieces of ribbon which have been cut into a curved shape on the ends and place them in the Bowdabra.
To finish, place the green mesh from the top into the Bowdabra for a small scrunchy bow.
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.
