Floral bows
are useful for decorating for any occasion and are easy to make. A few ribbon twists and you have an elegant and beautiful bow that would have cost much more had you purchased it. Use them to decorate presents, wreaths or make smaller versions for hair bows. Floral bows can also be used for home decor, to add a pretty touch to a front door or for wedding decorations.
Instructions
1. Pinch the ribbon, leaving a loop. Leave the "tail" of the ribbon as long as you want.
2. Loop the ribbon, continuously forming bigger loops until the bow is the size you wish. Make sure you have left enough ribbon for the other "tail."
3. Wrap bow tying wire around the center of the bow to anchor the ribbon in place.
4. Spread out the ribbon so it looks like a flower. You can shape the ends of the ribbon "tails" by cutting the ends straight across or at an angle.
