Everyone loves bows! They’re fun, exciting and uplifting! And it’s oh so easy to elevate your decor by adding a stacked bow using your Bowdabra! Just take a look at this vase filled with flowers. Wouldn’t this floral vase be ultra chic to add a lovely Bowdabra bow to it?
Then pinch the middle of the ribbon and insert it down into the Bowdabra.
Now, crease the end of the matching ribbon on the roll, and place it in the Bowdabra. Fold a 4″ loop, pinching the center of the ribbon down into the Bowdabra. Fold and pinch the ribbon to make a matching 4″ loop on the opposite side, down into the Bowdabra.
Make two loops a half inch shorter than the first loop stacked on top of each loop on either side. Folding and creasing the center into the Bowdabra.
Continue making two more loops on either side a half inch shorter than the previous loops stacked on top of each other, down into the Bowdabra for a total of eight loops. The loops should be stacked at 4″ – 3.5″ – 3″ – 2″ long on both sides.
To finish the bow, make a button loop to cover the bow wire, then scrunch all the loops down using the Bowdabra wand and cut off 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.
Take the bow wire around to the back, tying the wire in two or three tight knots.
Attach to the vase using the bow wire tied around the back. How adorable is this look!
