Christmas in July Tree topper bow
Instructions:
First, cut a piece of Bowdabra bow wire, cut it in half and lay it in the Bowdabra. Next, lay in a dollar tree patriotic uncle sam pick. Then, find the center of two ribbons, patriotic and Christmas and scrunch it in the Bowdabra for the tails.
Next, working with two ribbons velvet and plaid at the same time, place in the Bowdabra. Make 7 inch loops on each side twisting and scrunching as you go. Make sure as you make your loops you keep the velvet ribbon on top.
Now, place some dollar tree tinsel garland in the Bowdabra and make three loops on each side. (approx. 4-inch loops)
To make the center scrunchy bow, push the silver scrunchy ribbon from the top down. Place a rose in the center. Scrunch everything down with the Bowdabra wand.
Now, thread the loose wires through the loop and pull tight while the bow is still in the Bowdabra. Remove from the Bowdabra, turn to the back and tie a knot and double knot.
Fluff and shape your Christmas tree topper bow and pull the tails down. You have the most mind-blowing Patriotic tree topper for Christmas in July!
