Quick & Easy Bow Tutorial

Jamie Cripps is here with a bow tutorial that's a breeze to create! You'll need just a pair of scissors, ribbon, and if using as a hair bow, a hair clip.

 

Cut 4 ribbon pieces about 8" long of 1-1/2" wide wired ribbon. Jamie used our red/white wired dotted ribbon.  Begin by tying a knot in the first piece.

 

Pull the knot tight.

 

Tie the second piece around the first, centering the knots.

 

Tie the third piece around the others, centering the knots.

 

Finally tie the fourth piece around the others, centering the knots. Trim the pieces so they are all similar in length, cutting a triangle in each end. Fluff the ribbon as desired.

 

Flip the bow over and insert your hair clip through one of the slots created from the tie.

 

This bow is easy to slip off and on so you can change it quickly to coordinate. Using different widths and patterns will change the look and size as well!
