Sandy Sandler, the creator of the Bowdabra is here to show you how to create a gorgeous home decor wreath in minutes using the Bowdabra. Bowdabra is like having an extra hand, especially with making large floral wreaths like this. And the Bowdabra bow wire holds it all together in style!
Materials:
Floral stems and picks
Wire wreath frame
Instructions:
First, wrap a wire wreath frame all around with the burlap ribbon.
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, scrunch in a small piece of burlap folding the ends under so the fraying does not show. Lay in a piece of greenery. Follow this with a small ribbon tail.
Next, add a bunch of roses. And another floral bush on the opposite side. Now, bend and shape a large flower and lay it in the Bowdabra.
Place some of the same ribbons as the tail in the Bowdabra, bring it across, and scrunch down in the middle. Add a berry bush.
Finally, use the 1 ½’ wide burlap and place it in the Bowdabra. Twist and fold across to make a bow.
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. The Bowdabra wire makes it so easy!
To finish, shape and arrange your bow and florals. Tie the bow onto the prepared wreath with the excess bow wire.
It only took a few minutes and you have a stunning home decor wreath!
