When it comes to adding a touch of style and charm to any decor or occasion, a DIY Floral Cone Vase with a Bowdabra Bow is the perfect choice! It’s a simple solution and you won’t believe how easy and quick it is to make! Simply take a woven wicker placemat and fold the sides together into a cone shape.

Materials:

• Woven Wicker Placemat – 15″
• Hot Glue
• Water (optional)
• 2.5″ Wired Ribbon
• Scissors
• Bowdabra and Wand
• Bowdabra Bow Wire
• Florals

How to:

begin folding the sides in .  .  .

to the shape of a cone- narrow at the bottom and wide at the top.

Until satisfied with the cone shape.

Next, add hot glue to the edge of the placemat on the flat portion.

And seal, holding it together until the glue dries. How easy was that!

 

To make a Bow for the Floral Cone:

First, insert a 20″ piece of bow wire folded in half into the Bowdabra, tucking ends under. Then, cut an 18″ piece of wired ribbon, pinching the middle of the ribbon strip place it down into the Bowdabra. Dovetail the ends by folding the ribbon together and starting at the bottom cut up to the fold at an angle.

Next, crease the end of the matching ribbon on the roll, and place it in the Bowdabra. 

Continue making one more loop on either side. Fold and crease the center and twist the ribbon into the Bowdabra for a total of four loops. Scrunch all the loops down using the Bowdabra wand and cut off the excess ribbon.

While the bow is still in the Bowdabra, thread the loose ends of the bow wire through the loop and pull tight while gently pulling the bow out.

Then take the wire around to the back, tying the bow wire in two or three tight knots, cutting off excess bow wire.

Cut eight inches of bow wire to insert into the top edge of the cone. Make a loop, tying the ends to hang the cone. 

To finish, add beautiful flowers and hang the floral cone vase!
