SIMPLE BOWS from a beginner that will add a little “fancy” to your party favors.
Fancy Party Favors
SUPPLIES USED:
- Bowdabra Wire
- Bowdabra Large Tool
- Ribbon
- OTHER: misc. glass jar, clear plastic treat bag, hot glue gun, scissors, wire cutters, ruler
I created two different types of simple bows to embellish two different styles to make fancy party favors.
The first bow I created with (7) loops of the same size (3″), to be spread in a rounder shape with a few (3) smaller loops (1.5-2″) to add a second layer. Next, I snip the excess wire and then, glue the bow to the top of the jar lid.
The second bow was larger and had a tail using about 16″ of ribbon before starting the loops. Then, I layered them gradually smaller as I built the bow. I leave the wire in place and use it to tie around the goodie bag.
EASY AND FUN! See how easy it is to make fancy party favors the first time and every time!
Craft on!
