Content Summary :
“How To” Make A Perfect Bow 1. Measure and cut the length of ribbon
needed to form the tails. 2. To make the center loop, hold the
remaining ribbon face side up between your thumb and first finger (
Drawing 1 ), wrap it around your thumb. Now the “Wrong side” of the
ribbon is facing up. 3. Holding the ribbon tightly between your
fingers, twist it once so the face side is up. Twist the ribbon as
close to your fingers as possible. Make the first loop and gather the
ribbon back betweenyour fingers. Repeat on the other side ( Drawing 2
). Continue to twist and make loops until you have five loops on each
side ( Drawing 3 ). Cut the rest of ribbon off for tails. 4. Gather the
midpoint of the ribbon for the tails, ,together with the bow and slide
a piece of wire through the center loop. Pull both ends of the wire to
the back and twist tightly ( Drawing 4 ). It is important that the wire
is tight before you shape your bow or the loops may pull out. 5. To
shape the bow, pull the corresponding loops on each side of the bow in
the opposite directions, leaving the top loops in the center.
