Materials Required:

100-Yard Bowdabra Bow Wire
Large Bowdabra
1-1/2″ Frosted Candy Cane (wired), Red/White Color Ribbon Roll
Hot Glue
Grapevine Wreath
Artificial Red-White glittery ball berry sprays and white snowball sprays

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.

Next, cut a long piece of candy cane ribbon and lay it in the Bowdabra for the tails. Now, add some more ribbon and begin twisting and folding to make loops. Graduate the sizes of the loops and end with a small button loop.

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. Tie the bow to the grapevine wreath.

To finish the wreath glue candy sprays all around the wreath. Then, finish with mini snowball sprays. You have a beautiful candy cane inspired wreath to enjoy all season long!
