hi everyone in this video I want to show you how to make a stunning ribbon bow
with
to colors of ribbon
This ribbon bow I made is
6 inch approximately wide and we're gonna need to make
two patterns for this ribbon bow. So let's go ahead and start
the first pattern is a stripe of cardboard
which is 6 inch long
and if you want to make a different size of bow you just
measure the size that you want and do stripe
for that size. The second layer
of the ribbon is going to be the white and we're going to need for that
four-and-a-half inch long
O.k. now we have to stripes these are two patterns for our ribbon bow.
One is 6 inch long and the other
is four and a half inch long
let's start with the smaller layer we're going to begin with
tairing a piece of 12 inch long ribbon
and we'll put it aside for later.
Take the white ribbon and start wrapping around
pattern , the smaller pattern
now make loops as you see here in the video
okay now we're going to make
15 loops
when you're done just cut off the end
of the ribbon
Great. Take out the cardboard
now with sharp scissors just
cut off the edge
on the right side and on the left side hold all the loops tightly together
that's one side
and now the other side too
but leave the center attached. Don't cut off
the whole peace
Do the same to the other side
make sure you hold all the loops tightly together
Great! now open the loop
and place one cut edge
onto the other cut edge. When you have both
good in your fingers just take the white
stripe that we prepared before and
tie these loops together
make a very strong tie
okay now that we're done with this hold
all the loops between your fingers of the left hand take the
first loop from the center pull it
and twist it. Pull and twist towards you
Take the second side
pull it and twist
Take first from the right then from the left
right and left
each loop must be pulled
and twisted
Now as you see over here I pull and twist
but when I pull them I bring the loops up to the center
of the ribbon flower. I bring it up to the middle
and what I did before is actually I pulled them more to the
sides
because I want the ribbon loops to be also like laying down and also pulled
up to the center. Ok, that's what we get when we finish
you can always straighten it out a little bit , great!
very nice beautiful .
This bow is the smaller layer
and soon we're going to make the bigger layer which is the red color in this
bow. You could play around with the colors and
take any color you want . You could do green and white or green and red
could do gold and red you could to light blue and white
for a baby shower for a boy or pink and white
for baby girl you could make these
bows for wedding cars bridal showers
decorations for holidays for birthdays
you could make them big with centerpiece
you actually could make any size you want
now that you know how to make the patterns first to measure the length
of the bow and then you make the larger pattern that length
okay now we're starting with the red ribbon
we are doing the same thing first we wrap around the pattern but this is 20 times
take out the cardboard, cut the edges
on both sides
now placed 2 cut edges together hold them
well between your fingers and
tie them tightly, a double tie with
the red thin ribbon stripe
you prepared before we started
Great! Now start pulling the loops , start from the right side and left side right
side
pull and twist pull and twist
As you see this ribbon -I am pulling them
all to the sides I didn't pull any
loop up to the center because this one I want to be
flat. See this is a flat bow and on top of it I'm going to put the white one
Now the way I attach these two together I don't use glue,
I actually pull through the
leftover white thin stripe
of ribbon, both sides pull them
through to the back of the ribbon bow
and I just tie them together with a double tie.
now if you use this on a wedding car you could
just tie this to the
door - doorknobs
Now that ends that you have - You have to play around with them either cut them
or leave them like that you could also twist them
or do anything you like.
