Instructions

First, 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.

Next, cut two long lengths of the snowflake ribbon and place them in the Bowdabra for the tails.

Now, make a twist and fold style bow.  Place the ribbon right side down, twist, and bring it across to form a loop. Twist and fold, making loops until you have three loops on each side. Make sure the wrong side is on the inside of the loops.

Next, continue making three more loops on each side in this manner, only make these loops smaller than the previous loops. End with a small button loop in the center.

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.

Separate and pull apart the loops and fluff out the bow all around. What beautiful, elegant, and easy winter bow! This is a perfect bow for gifts, wreaths, swags, and more!
