Make a Satin Ribbon Bow

This is the easy way to make a bow. I actually just made a tiny one for a tree topper but if you have a huge tree, you can do these bows in giant ribbon and make it absolutely amazing! I’ve even seen cool paper ones like comic book bows and magazine bows! So here’s how it’s done!

Cut a bunch of short strips of ribbon. The length is up to you but mine were from a couple to 3 or 4 inches.IMG_5358 Then glue each piece to itself so the shiny sides are on the same side as each other like this:IMG_5359 Then glue them into two circular bow formations.IMG_5360The center is made with a simple loop of the ribbon.
