GIANT Bow Tutorial

Any good suggestions for ones you can put on wreaths? Trying to make a Christmas one for the first time.

How about using the Jumbo Bow Easy? If you aren't normally "friendly" with bows & ribbons, this could simplify your task!
Gina K is one who is carrying them.

This one is easy to make.

Take a thick ribbon and two round bottles the size you want your bows.

Find the centre of the ribbon and wrap the ribbon round the bottles.

cross one ribbon over the other at the front.

The ribbon on top goes through the gap at the base of the two bottles, then over the ribbon and back through the gap at the top between the two bottles your ribbons are once again in the front, now just knot a half knot and pull tight.

remove the bottles and you have a giant bow.

I agree with TexasGrammy. The Jumbo BowEasy is the way to go. I made one the other day for a wreath I had from last year and it turned out great. I got the indoor/outdoor ribbon at WalMart. I am bow challenged without my BowEasys.

Happy Thanksgiving and bow making.
