[size=18][/size]Hi making a bow is really pretty easy,it just takes a little practice,not much though at all...1 st you take the ribbon you want to use and let some hang as the tail so it becomes the tail(1 side of completed ribbon) then all you do is place a loop to the left,then a loop to the rite,and you can go back and forth till disered amount of loopsthen you would end it where you want leaving a long enough lenght as you did the oter side. Then you take a peice of floral wire and fold it in 1/2 around the middlepull as tight as possible and cut of excess,trim your tails and
WELLA you have a bow just pull on the loops alittle to spread them out and you are done... another option is leave the wire on and after you have twisted it so the bow is tight you can also use the remainder to attach to your item ie,favor,craft project floral etc. Or if you did cut the wire off thats ok too, you can take a peive of the ribbon and tie in the middle and attach like that to your item,or gift,experiment it will be fun and they are really easy and fast you will be doing bows in no time...
Hope this helps...........
