🎀 BOW MAKING 101 🎀 9-Loop Funky Bow

[@MYDIYKathy]

Hi Arlynn, I just came from Kiki's channel who made your bow on her wreath. I used to do this bow out of leftover ribbon pieces not knowing there is a name for this type of bow. I Love your style so I am subscribing.

[@ArlynnsCountryCraftCorner]

Hi My DIY, thank you so very much for subscribing! And a big thanks to sweet Kiki...Welcome to my little KZbin family!

[@cherylmason8177]

I really love the way you end ur videos. AND UR VIDEOS also. I actually suffer from depression and chronic pain and i just wanted you to know that ur message touched me and I truly appreciate the kind words. Thanks for sharing and God bless!!

[@joannesmith3919]

Hi Arlynn 😉 my sister is learning to make bows. She now has your videos to watch. Major thanks to you. I Love and miss you. Jo Anne Smith

[@micheletesno7771]

Hi Arlynn, great idea doing a series to teach each bow. Thanks to you I have made funky bows. Thank you for taking the time to teach us. Have a great night.

[@newbeginningsartcrafts4153]

Thank you for sharing!!

[@barbarakozlowski2642]

Hey there Arlynn, I had to come over to this video and see how to do the 9 loop funky bow. I haven't done any bows in a while and I plum forgot how to get started. Thank you my friend. 😘

[@dianeboulangerbureau3983]

This is a good idea to alternate the ruban ! Thank you so much !

[@TraditionsByTheSeasons]

Super excited about this series, you may change this bow challenged gal into a bow maker, ha! Xoxo 😘

[@sandrabrown6326]

Arlynn I think this bow is so nice. My gifts are going to look better next year. Thanks for sharing

[@helenvienneau7649]

Arlynn, you're a great teacher. I love your channel, and I always enjoy watching your videos. Thank you so much for all that you do. I'll be watching to see if you go live tomorrow, and I promise I'll be there watching, and commenting. Hugs.

[@sherryweston7531]

Yea ! Arlynn you are so easy to follow , I have made bows for years but never the funky bow, until I discovered your channel . And as I've said I have put them on everything ( slight exaggeration ) !! But really, my daughter and I have a business together where we create and sell , and this bow has graced many a new project ! And everybody loves it !!!!!

[@sandieyule1644]

You sure make this look easy! You are a wonderful teacher! God Bless

[@newbeginningsartcrafts4153]

Who doesn’t love a funky bow!? So cool!!❤️

[@karengulbe5019]

Hi Arlynn I love this series!!! This bow is beautiful. I need to go ribbon shopping. I can’t wait to try making all the bows in your series. I watched the tribute video Liz made on you and Joe and her words were so true of you. You are one of my most favourite people. You are such a joy to watch. All the Best to you sweet lady. 🤗

[@kathyjones2104]

Love it and easy thank you

[@georginaandreou5445]

Hi Arlynn thank you for this series look forward to the next tutorial take care hugs xx🤗

[@sandrajeffrey944]

Thanks for the link to this tutorial series. I realized within less than 2 minutes exactly why my bow was NOT working out! Just like Paula Hammett, I was stacking the bows all on top of each other instead of alternating them: ONE loop UP, then ONE loop DOWN until all 9 folded ribbons were ready to be tied off! Good grief!!! No wonder my bow was a total disappointing DISASTER!!! The fact that I'm using my Bowdabra to "hold" my ribbon doesn't change a thing about your wonderful instruction. Thanks as well for the PDF that I saved as well as printed out. I'll keep the printed version in my ribbon storage box and follow them until I can do it in my sleep! It's so awesome to have access to skilled crafters like you who are so willing to share your expertise with us NEWBIES! Can't tell you just how much I appreciate that!! I noticed some other tutorials you've posted. I AM going to tackle the lanterns. I have a crazy passion for decorating lanterns. P.S. I couldn't help but notice your BEAUTIFULLY decorated home all ready for Christmas when you recorded this bow video. OM GOODNESS. It's my definition of PICTURE PERFECT!

[@brendajames5322]

Love your funky bow series. I had thumb replacement so I can’t hold loops in my hand. So I tie each loop individually then gather all loops together use zip tie to assemble bow turns out great. My 16 year old grandson was surprised I made a 12 loop funky bow for a gift he gave to his girlfriend. Thanks for sharing your talent the bow I made was a big hit! Love your home decor and enjoy all your videos. God Bless.

[@lisasagardia191]

I'm going to love this series!!! While you were making the bow , I was writing down the numbers for a 9 loop funky bow. It works better for me to know that if I cut the ribbon 22 inches, I can make a small bow with a 5 1/2 loop. Eventually once I get comfortable with making bows then I can venture and cut the ribbon any size. Thanks for making this video. XO, Lisa Sagardia

[@pamelacurran1974]

Thank you so much I really have trouble with bows ! ❤️

[@kiziecraddock1449]

Beautiful Bow 😃❤️🥰Thank you for showing us how to make it 🤗hugs Texas Lady🎄

[@bethdavis332]

Love this series you are doing. I am going after the holidays to find a small lantern and I think that is all I can do at first is a nine loop, well hopefully I can. Have a wonderful day Arlynn, hugs to you.

[@jeanfuller1462]

Great job

[@debbrad477]

Beautiful bow , pretty ribbon that you chose. The funky bow is my favorite bow to make. I made a 16 loop bow yesterday and put it on my glass block with lights inside and a a matching bow for my wreaths. A big thank you for teaching everyone how to make a funky bow. Take care and a big hug💝

I've been making bows for about 40 years sex to my grandmother teaching me I'm now 69 and still love making bows I've yet to use a bow maker but don't that doesn't mean I'm not going to try one anyway it seems like the funky bow is the easiest bow I've ever seen made except for the round bow where you do the little clippings of a angled round round round folding the middle clip it and then pull them out anyway I think the funky bow is so much fun thank you for sharing❤

[@marcialawhorn3044]

I always make your funky bow but am looking forward to a refresher! I can always improve!

[@nancyrodriguez8356]

Hello beautiful lady! So glad you decided to do this series. I actually added ribbon to my Christmas garlands for the first time ever and made a Funky bow for each end of the 2 nine feet garlands. They turned out nice but I know with practice they will be even more beautiful. Thank you so much for this bow making class!

[@lisajaworowski316]

Wow! Beautiful, that was amazing on how you made that.

[@RjsHome]

Hi Arlynn! I literally paused your video to go to the garage and find my bow bin! Although I kinda know how to do one, I want to perfect my funky bow. Therefore, I’m following your series, and following alongside you. But I needed one ribbon of the same width as the other two I found. Heading to the store tomorrow morning! I’ll be caught up and ready to go for Part 2. ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️

[@ArlynnsCountryCraftCorner]

Hey there Rj!!! Bless your heart girlie!! You are so sweet! I should have mentioned that my next installment won't probably come out till next Tuesday later in the day (because I have a fudge video to do and then I'm doing Danielle's and Janny's Gift Present Wrapping Challenge video for Monday). BUT, then I'll get my next installment up...a 12-Loop funky bow on Tuesday at some point. :)

Great idea for a series to teach how to do the funky bows & others. I've mastered the funky bow and had to figure out my own way to hold the sections while making it. There is no way my poor hands will let me hold even half of what you hold. (darn arthritis)I think I've turned into a crazy funky bow lady. Can i say it's your fault that I have all this ribbon now? lol

Is it possible to use a bowdabra to hold the loops in place until you have the entire group ready to tie off? Thank you for the tutorial.

[@ArlynnsCountryCraftCorner]

I honestly do not know Mertie. I have never used a bowdabra. Thank you so much for watching! 💗

[@nancycogar3864]

I just found your tutorials and I was wondering if you wanted to make a smaller bow how many inches does it need be cut?

[@ArlynnsCountryCraftCorner]

Hi Nancy...You can make them whatever length that you'd like for them to be, the most important thing to do is to keep your loop length consistent in whatever size bow you are making. You can always trim the tails down when you're finished making the bow. :) Thank you so much for watching...I hope you enjoyed them.

Are you asking me a question Maria? I'm not sure if you mean one of the loops or one of the tails. If it is one of the loops, you can find its tail and tug it to make it smaller. It it is one of the tails, you can trim it down to the length that you want it to be.
