[@ashaymathieu884]

girlfriend, girlfriend, girlfriend keep doing what you are doing. You are a blessing to me and so many others. I a rewatching this video and sharing it on my social media platforms because it is one of the best videos i’ve seen so far. Is has increased my confidence in MAKING BOWS 🥰

[@barbarawinston4140]

I have been trying to make bows for many years with NO success. They always look messy, but, now I can make bows that look professional!!! you made this easy to follow and understand. I love your videos. Thank you

[@wallywoman1950]

I have watched several tutorials and yours is my favorite - very well done; length video; more than one bow; measurements given; quality video; examples of using bows; easy to follow - AND project turned out great. Thank you.

[@5girlsandoneguy]

Having 4 daughters you'd think I'd know how to make a bow. Well, I don't! I love the instructions here, though some of it goes a bit fast for my brain. The only caution I would give is to not use a wide, thick burlap type of ribbon. It makes it really difficult, though the simple bow works pretty well. I will definitely try again with thinner ribbon the next time!

[@jenniferaustin6778]

These are great! I had a little trouble following this with the speed being so fast…

[@rhondaparker6457]

You can change the KZbin settings to change the Playback speed to go slower or faster.

[@hayesfamily429]

Liked them all but 5 is great.

Girl. Thank you!!! You just saved my elf on the shelf surprise that I had no idea how to accomplish! My kids want the elves to bring a bow for our huge wreath. I had one random glittery spool of wired ribbon in our gift wrapping tub and I probably would have ruined the ribbon trying to do this without you! This momma can go to bed now!!!

[@Theshabbycreekcottage]

I love that idea and it sounds so fun! Thank you April, I'm glad it was helpful.

[@madkwilter5693]

Best Easy Bow video out there. I used the second. It's best for a ribbon that has a "good side". I made a satin white bow for a wreath for my door for the wedding weekend and it looks great!

[@lucindaaldighere2516]

I have severe arthritis in my one hand and your process made it possible to make these easily. Thank you!!!

[@lindahovgaard9786]

I learned how to make a bow years ago but I always struggled with it because you basically folded it back and forth all in your hands, tie it in the middle (without letting go of your bunch) and fluffing it. I have small hands and it was always hard to hang onto and back then I never thought of using pipe cleaner or move over girlfriend - zip ties (best tip ever - thank you!). I tied it with the ribbon which was hard to get snug. Also back then (I'm sure dating myself...lol) wired ribbon wasn't a thing so you had to get your loops right. The whole thing was so frustrating. I needed a bow today for a gift that I tucked in a really nice storage box. I tied a criss cross ribbon around the box and then I wanted a bow to go over the criss cross section on the top. I found your tutorial and walla! I love the ways you showed us how to make bows! So much easier and quicker...and a better end result! Thank you so much!!! I will not longer be intimidated by bow making!

[@kathrynvandervere7670]

Thank you so much. I have trouble understanding things sometimes and I understood everything! I am so excited to be able to make bows now!

[@kellybrown2028]

Best bow tutorial ever! You rock. Thank you

[@kellic8665]

You are my HERO with that zip tie trick 🤩

[@kdbbn8]

I learned so much from you....but more importantly you have given me the confidence to make them. Thanks.

[@veronicafarrow3469]

Lady, I loved your tutorial. I had gotten tired of the same old bow and now I have new beautiful examples. Your voice is pleasant and I enjoyed your show. I actually stopped what I was doing to watch. Thank you for sharing your ideas. I look forward to uplifting my home with your help. Thanks again for sharing. 💙

[@CommonSense4u]

Love it! Thank you!
