How to make the perfect DIY winter wreath with Bowdabra

Make a perfect DIY winter wreath bow with the Bowdabra®—plus an ornament accent for that extra winter sparkle! This “funky loop” style is fast, full, and perfect for wreaths, trees, swags, and winter décor.

Materials:

Bowdabra

Bowdabra Bow Wire

Snowflake ornament

80”- 2.5” wide Turquoise wired Snowflake ribbon

64”- 2.5” wide Silver wired ribbon

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 a length of turquoise wired snowflake ribbon, fold it in half with a loop on one side and two tails on the other, like an awareness ribbon. Then, place it in the Bowdabra. Repeat with another length of the same ribbon and place in the Bowdabra alternating the sides of loops and tails. You will have two loops and two tails.

Repeat this funky bow technique with two lengths of silver wired ribbon and another two lengths of the turquoise snowflake ribbon.

Finally, take one more length of the turquoise snowflake ribbon and place it in the Bowdabra with a loop and tail.

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

Use the excess wire to tie an ornament onto the bow. Fluff and arrange the bow, and use the wire to tie the bow onto the wreath. You made the perfect DIY winter wreath in just minutes with the Bowdabra.
