To make the bow:


Fold a 24″ piece of Bowdabra wire in half and lay it in the Bowdabra, tucking ends under. Measure 8″ of 2.5″ ribbon for the tail and make a crease in the middle, placing the ribbon at the crease mark and place it down into the center of the Bowdabra.


Next, leave the ribbon on the roll to make your first loop. Fold over and make a crease into the ribbon creating a five-inch loop and press into the Bowdabra.


Next, fold the other side at the same width creating another five-inch loop.


Continue making one more loop on either side for a total of four, 5″ loops. Then fold the end ribbon, creating a button loop. Cut off the excess ribbon.


Then scrunch the ribbon down with the Bowdabra wand.


While the bow is still in the Bowdabra, thread the two loose ends of the Bowdabra bow wire through the loop at the other end.


Pull the Bowdabra bow wire tightly while the bow is still in the Bowdabra and gently pull the bow out of the Bowdabra. Separate the loose wire ends and take them around to the back of the bow and tie in several knots to secure. Cut off excess wire. Straighten and fluff bow.


Dovetail the ribbon ends

Fold the end ribbon together and cut at the fold on an angle down to the opposite ribbon edge.
