Instruction for Making Bow to Jazz Up a Halloween Banner

1. Cut your bow wire, tulle, and ribbon for each bow. Quickly pass the ribbon ends through a flame to seal the ends.
2. Fold bow wire in half and place in the Mini Bowdabra. Tuck the ends under the Mini Bowdabra so they are out of your way.
3. Scrunch each piece of glitter tulle into the Mini Bowdabra.
4. Layer the ribbon in the Mini Bowdabra, placing the widest ribbon first.
5. Compress the tulle and ribbons with the Mini Bowdabra wand.
6. With the bow still in place in the Mini Bowdabra, pass the wire ends through the loop and tighten securely.
7. Bring the wire ends to the back of the bow and tight in a secure knot. Leave the wire ends long to use in attaching the bows to the banner.
8. Decide how many bows you will need. I made one to go between each banner tile and one for each end.
9. Add the bows to your banner using the bow wire tails.
10. Enjoy!!
