Do you want to learn how to make a beautiful bow using wired ribbon? It’s easy and fun! Follow these simple steps, and you’ll have a lovely bow for any occasion in no time.
Start by taking your wired ribbon and making a loop. Hold the ends of the ribbon and cross them over each other to form the first loop. This will be the base of your bow.
Next, fold the ribbon back on itself to create a second loop. This loop should be a bit smaller and positioned behind the first one. This adds depth to your bow.
Keep making more loops by alternating sides. Each time you make a new loop, try to make it slightly larger than the previous one. This will give your bow a nice, full shape. Keep going until you have the number of loops you want.
Once you’re happy with the number of loops, it’s time to secure the center of your bow. Use a twist tie or some floral wire to hold the loops together tightly. Make sure it’s secure so your bow doesn’t fall apart.
Here are some additional tips to make your bow even better:
