- 4 different colored ribbons (1.5 inches wide and 18 inches in length)
- Scissors
- Hot glue gun and glue sticks
- Floral wire (18 gauge) and wire cutters
Instructions:
1. Create the Bow Loops:
- For each ribbon, make a loop, leaving about 2 inches of ribbon at the bottom for tails.
- Secure the loop in place with a small amount of hot glue from the hot glue gun.
2. Glue Second Loop:
- Position another ribbon over the first loop and create another loop.
- Glue this loop in place just like the first one, covering any exposed glue from the first loop.
3. Repeat with All Ribbons:
- Continue adding ribbon loops in this manner until you have used all four ribbons.
- As you add each new loop, make sure to glue it securely in place.
4. Wrap with Wire:
- With the ribbon loops arranged the way you like, wrap a floral wire around the loops at the center to secure them.
- Twist the wire tightly several times to ensure it holds all the ribbons together.
5. Trim Tails:
- Trim the four ribbon tails to even out the length, making sure to cut an angle from the sides of the ribbons instead of straight to achieve a V-shaped cut.
6. Add Embellishments:
- You can add further embellishments to the bow, such as a large flower or a smaller bow for more dimension.
7. Attach to Wreath:
- Once the bow is finished, attach it to your wreath.
Your wreath bow with multiple ribbons is ready to enhance the beauty and uniqueness of your wreath.
