Dollar store shamrock wreath form
Green mesh
Floral greenery
Green flower
First, wrap a dollar store wreath form all around with the green gleam ribbon and set aside.
Next, 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, using the mesh ribbon, fold over the end to hide any fraying and scrunch into the Bowdabra making sure you are in the center of the mesh. Now, lay in your floral greenery branch so that it is cascading downward.
Next, lay in the green burlap ribbon and shamrock ribbon for the tails. Instead of dovetailing simply roll the ends under. Scrunch everything down with the Bowdabra wand.
Then, using the green burlap ribbon twist to the right side and lay it in the Bowdabra. Now, twist and fold to make loops for a loopy bow. Repeat this step with both lighter and darker shamrock ribbons.
Finally, add the green flower to the center. 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.
Use the excess wire to tie the bow onto the prepared shamrock wreath form. You can enjoy your lucky shamrock wreath!
