Join us on this captivating journey and witness the transformation of simple ribbons into a stunning work of art. Let’s indulge in the magic of crafting as we discover the beauty of the Funky Designer Bow with Nick’s Seasonal Décor.
First, fold the bow wire in half and tuck it underneath the Bowdabra so it stays out of the while you make your bow.
Next, fold a piece of black and white ribbon to have a loop on one side and two tails on the other. Lay it in the Bowdabra. Now, using the other color ribbon repeat this step making sure that the loop is on the opposite side.
Continue in the manner until you have three loops of each color ribbon.
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.
Dovetail all the ends. To dovetail, fold the ribbon in half and cut at an angle away from the fold.
To finish your funky designer bow fluff and arrange all the loops and tails. You have a beautiful funky style bow that can be used for gifts, wreaths, and more.
