How to Make a Bow for Wreaths and Home Decor

 

 

 

One of the things I get asked most often this time of year is if I will make a bow for a friend or neighbors’ wreath or other home decor item. It seems that I’m not the only one who thinks that bows are OKIE DOKIE this time of year even though I dislike them on the whole. Yes, I’ve seen lots of gorgeous wreaths without bows too but every now and then, a project just needs a bow. Right?

But what if you do if you don’t have a neighbor or friend who knows how to make one?

Don’t worry, I’ve got ya covered!

In this video tutorial I’m sharing my secrets to making a fabric ribbon bow so that you can make them too!

    Thanks for the tutorial on bow making. It’s good to see a step-by-step illustration Your explanation is concise and so helpful. I can’t wait to get started. I also watched your tutorial on the Christmas garland. I was enlightened. I never realized it was so easy. Again, thanks so much.
