How to Make a Double-Ribbon Bow Like a Pro
You've all seen those gorgeous, luscious bows on wreaths and projects and wondered how they got them so full and perfectly styled right? I have been making bows for years, but making a double-bow is tricky. So instead, use this easy "cheat" method to attain the same look. Shhhhh....no one will ever know. :)
This is the final product. A pretty bow using two coordinating ribbons.
The first ribbon is a fun polka dot...
This is the final bow after the second ribbon has been attached. So what is my secret?
Adding loops of ribbon which have been wired to wood skewer halves.
Yep, its that easy. Just add loops of ribbon until you get the full look you desire.
I added "tails" by using the same wire and skewer method.
I added flowers, and cute wood heart plaques to create an easy Valentine Wreath. Visit my blog for complete how-to details.

I will try this as I can't seem to master bow making well.

This is absolutely gorgeous! Is there anywhere I can look to learn how to make the first bow?
