Hi everyone, Steph Ackerman here and I am sharing a beautiful Bowdabra Rose Bow. This bow will be a great addition to any gifts, or wreaths all through the summer. It is super easy to make and so very elegant. And with personalized ribbon colors, it would be a great pew bow and table decor for weddings.
Bowdabra Bow-Making Tool
Bow Wire
Ribbon
Flowers
First, cut a piece of Bowdabra bow wire, fold it in half, and place it in the Bowdabra.
Tuck the ends underneath while making the bow.
Next, cut two 12″ lengths of ribbon and place them in the Bowdabra.
Place the same ribbon in the channel and start creating loops, folding and twisting the ribbon as it passes through the channel.
Now, create graduating sizes of loops.
Use the bow wand to push the loops into the channel.
Place roses on either side of the channel.
Selecting another ribbon, creating 3 additional loops, and tucking the ends into the channel.
Cut the flower stems down so they don’t show beyond the edges of the bow.
Pull the bow wire and tighten it while the bow is still in the Bowdabra.
Next, remove the bow from the Bowdabra, separate the wire ends, and tie a knot.
Realign the bow and fluff out the loops.
I am not yet sure how I will use this rose bow, but I’ll think of something and there are so many options!!
Thanks for stopping by.
Steph
