How To Make A Double Ribbon Bow

[@annezimet2524]

I LOVE your tutorials! So professional. No “umm”s, no drawing a blank when you reach for something, no nervous giggles or awkward empty moments. Your voice is so soothing. Not high pitch irritating sing-song tones. Yes you have a little adorable chuckle every now and then but it’s great! . I spent all afternoon making bows after bows, practicing. I finally became proficient! I watched this video over and over, paused it, restarted it and even took notes! Thanks for spending the afternoon with me!

[@colleenthompson7096]

I'm just loving your cheerful, upbeat teaching style! Your laugh is timed perfectly with my little bouts of frustration, lol. I had to slow down the playback speed a little to have a little more patience with myself. Thank you for this helpful video. Can't believe I actually accomplished this task without having to set fire to my project in exasperation!!! 🤣

[@DavesWreaths]

Hi Colleen, thank you so much. I had a little chuckle reading your comment...I've been there before....LOL. Those bouts of frustration are hard to get through sometimes and I'm glad you persisted and kept going...and now you're on your way to being a master bow maker!!! YAY!!!

[@debrabenton7265]

For me these tutorials were so much easier for me to make different bows. Thank you 💜💜

[@rhondadegrafft6160]

So desperate searching for bow making tutorial for our wreath decorating contest until I stumbled into your video.Thanks a lot. Really simple and easy to follow. I was so pleased with how it came out.

[@DavesWreaths]

[@cecikp9292]

@Dave's Wreaths and Things We were aiming to be the best, but we just got third place. The 1st and second just used their unit resources like isolation gown, gloves, etc. So, that's what the judges tripping, actually. I included Christmas carols in the wreath to have an edge from the other contestants.

[@karena9733]

[@DavesWreaths]

I'm sooo glad you changed "bad side" to "dull side". I make bows with homeless youth, and the 'bad side' has such horrible implications. I love your videos, and the young folks I work with love making bows with you.

[@DavesWreaths]

Hi there, thank you so much. I try as had as I can to say "dull side", and I appreciate your comment. I love that you work with the homeless youth and get them involved in creativity and the arts. Good job!!!! Take care. 😊

Love it! Dollar tree in U. S. is increasing its prices to $1.25 after the beginning of the new year. First time in 30 Years. Times are a changing.

[@DavesWreaths]

Hi Kathleen...yes, I head about that. I was shocked to hear they were doing it. I guess times are really changing. I'm from Canada, and we've always paid $1.25, but I'm noticing now some items are $1.50. I wonder if they're going to increase it to that here? Hmmm....

[@wanderingtin]

You’re a life saver! Thanks for this!

[@DavesWreaths]

Thank you so much.

[@melissavega4287]

Even though Christmas is over ,,, thank you thank you thank you because I see so many do it by hand and gives no explanation on how and why the twist is needed…all I see is them is holding it up in air and just talking about this and that and twisting like if I understood what was happening… I kept twisting and it came out like crap… lol. Again thank you for this… I probably don’t need to buy a making bow tool

[@DavesWreaths]

Hi Melissa, I'm so glad you liked this video and found it helpful. I hope you don't have to buy one either. 😊😊😊 Have fun bow making!!! Thank you.

[@iwanacarvalho3067]

You are T-H-E BEST🎉🎉🎉

[@pksmith1275]

Hello, Dave! I have bow envy:) So beautiful and I'm going to try your technique. Love your color choice and I like the way your bows come out so full and fluffed. By the way, I've learned to win the 'battle of the roll' but letting them fall to the floor when working with ribbon. That's where they want to live anyway, poor things. They don't play nice on the table. LOL:)) Be well, be safe!

[@DavesWreaths]

PK!!!!...Hello!!!! OMG....I gave up that battle long time ago. HAHA. You can see that battle going on in this video for sure....I even edited out some moments where I flung them on the floor...."..you wanna live there...go ahead!!!". LOL. You take care of your self and be safe!!! As always, your comments make me smile. 💜💜💜

[@deemcpherson8327]

Thank you.

[@WreathPurpose]

great video

[@DavesWreaths]

Thank you so much 😊

[@alicejones5848]

Excellent

[@DavesWreaths]

😁🤗😁👍

[@Katja_Bre]

I will do a big bow for my Apartment door 🤶 thanks for showing 🤩

[@DavesWreaths]

Hi Katja...that's a great idea. It will look amazing I'm sure!!! 🤶🤶🤶

[@nene1066]

What can I use ti tie if I don't have pipe cleaners?

[@DavesWreaths]

Hi there, you can always use floral wire or cable ties to substitute the pipe cleaners. 😊

[@bluntiemimmy]

Do I have to use the hole roll?

[@DavesWreaths]

Hi Melinda, you don't have to use the entire roll if you do not wish too. You can use as much or as little as you want. It all depends on how many loops you wish to have on your bow. Thanks so much and I hope that helps.

[@shannonfinklea6703]

I'm making bows for globes what's the best size I need to make 10

[@DavesWreaths]

Hi Shannon, what size are the globes? I maybe would use smaller ribbon like 1.5" or smaller, depending on the size of your globes. Thanks.

[@gaylenemckewen562]

Thank you, thank you, thank you !!!!!

[@DavesWreaths]

Hi Gaylene...your welcome, your welcome, your welcome. lol. Thanks!!!

[@pamelaburdick8366]

Can’t you just keep going around like underneath so you don’t have to twist it?

[@DavesWreaths]

Hi Pamela, thanks so much. The twisting is to make sure the good side will face outwards once the bow is completed.

[@pamelaburdick8366]

But the right side would be facing the outside. I wish I could include a video of what I’m talking about lol love the ribbons

[@bonniewulff8627]

How many inches is the first small loops .

[@DavesWreaths]

Hi Bonnie, the first loop is approx. 3-4" in size. Thank you. 😊

[@LaramieCountyFair]

How many yards did you use for the bow?

[@DavesWreaths]

Hi there, for this bow, I used the two rolls (one of each pattern) that was 9'. Thank you.

[@cynthiaalonzo5398]

Nice
