How to Make A Floral Bow

A floral bow is a type of bow that has a variety of loop sizes, and upon completion has similar qualities of a flower. The larger loops are around the outside of the bow and the sizes gradually get smaller towards the center. Depending on the size of the floral bow, the amount of loops may vary: they may have as few as four to eight loops or as many as twenty to thirty loops. The loops are spread apart to make the oval or round shape, and tails are generally hanging below.

1. Pinch the ribbon and make a loop leaving the tail the desired length.	2. Continue making loops while gradually increasing the size of the loops until the bow is full and you have enough ribbon left to make the other tail.
3. Secure the center of the bow with a lightweight wire.	4. Fan out the loops until it looks appropriate. 5. Cut the ribbon tails at an angle or in points to finish off the bow.
