Hi Thomas, Try wrapping ribbon around a piece of cardboard. The size of the cardboard is up to you, depending how big of a bow you want to make. Pinch the ribbon in the middle and secure with wire or another piece of ribbon. Once center is secured, take ribbon off the cardboard. Pull the ribbon loops out and fluff. It might take several attempts. Hope you have a Merry Christmas.
With a 25 ft ribbon place the ribbon down flat and fold it back and forth in 8 inch folds, twist the center each time you make a new fold, then tie with a wire or garbage wire at the center where are the folds and fluff all the folds out. For a tree, do this twice out of two colors say gold and white or two solid red ones or a red one with a white one for example. It really makes it look full with 2 such bows made and fit together and wired at the center. Here is a video, hope this helps: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qDcDbImKP1w

How To Tie a Christmas Bow With 1-Sided Ribbon
well..do what I did...buy ribbon...the thick kind...then some skinnier kind for the middle...make a huge mess using up most of the ribbon...then ..go to to the Dollar Tree and buy...for a DOLLAR...your choice of at least 10 beautiful different size...different...different color bows. VOILA !!!
use 2-3 inch wired ribbon and make a bow, using a pipe cleaner to cinch the middle. Bend each piece into shape and fluff it. Make 1-2 more of these, in the same size. Then hold them together to determine if you need another bow. When you have enough, tightly fasten the pipe cleaners together, reshape the bow, and use the tails of the pipe cleaners to the top of your tree, tweaking the placement of the bow loops. Happy Holidays!
You could go t dollar store and it will be cheaper BUT not as pretty, hold end of ribbon (wired) fold over about 4 inches, then do it again and again and again until its all gone, having gotten a little bigger each time do not worry bout how it looks right now, twist a tie on it in the middle nice and tight, now fluff and twist and get it just right play with it till its perfect. I use about three spools for a nice big bow on the top so pretty

I have a Bowdabra bow maker and it makes the most fabulous bows with little to no effort. I highly recommend it.
You could also tie a knot on the centre of the ribbon snd then tie a bow as if it were on your shoe. Cut ends to style.
Buy 3 rolls of wired ribbon....DollarTree is a good source....then follow the directions on the youtube video linked here:

Stick loops of ribbon on top of each other until you have a ball!
Loop ribbon to form loops and hot glue them together.
Hi Thomas, hope this helps you.
