Thank you for explaining bow making in detail . I have been playing with ribbon and attempting to make bows. Some turn out great, others not so great. Seeing this I can see where I can improve and customize to my personal preference.
Thank you I’ve watched so many people and tutorials of how to make a bow and this is the first time I’ve seen cutting the slits in the middle. Everyone one else 1/2 turns the ribbon which is where I struggle the most so thank you for that trick I feel like I can make an actual cute bow now.
I love how you explained everything you were doing in simple terms. I have always had such a tough time with bows, I look forward to trying this way. Thanks
Well I’m a senior lady and used to make both and forgot how. Thank you for re-teaching me. That being said your way is much easier than the way I made it back in the day. You’re such a lovely young lady it was a pleasure watching you teach me. Ann
Thank you. I made a bit smaller version for a bumble bee theme door hanger. Used 2.5 in. yellow sheer ribbon and 1.5 in. black and white stripe ribbon. I didn't do a tail, but followed your instruction exactly. Turned out so cute! It is my first bow making experience!! Thank you so much. It's perfect!
ty, ty, TY for making this video! I am making door hangers to sell and u saved the day showing how to make this bow! very beautiful! keep being awesome!!
Thanks for your tutorial on making a two-color bow by hand. I don’t need another gadget in my life! The cutting technique in the middle makes ribbon twisting/fluffing so much easier. I appreciate your energy. Cheers from Kentucky!
I love you !!! Thankyou so much I was almost crying because I was trying to make a bow for my tree as a topper and I couldn’t find a diy on one simple bow to make until I saw your Thankyou so so much love your creations!!
Wow this has been the most easiest way I have ever seen I love you for this tutorial not saying anything against any other videos just only so much your hand can hold 😫.. Thank you once again I will share my bow when done ✅ truly appreciated
I have been making bows for years but with twisting it was taking a toll on my hands so I actually spent a week on line looking for a another method. I was at a point I almost.bought a bow maker.Than I saw your tutorial ,it was just exactly what I've been looking for. Thank you so much for making bows easier for this 80 year. old that still wants to make crafts and paint. God Bless your talents
Hi Liz! Thanks for the tutorial! I love how you teach us to use zip ties to hold the center together! It's been years since I worked with bows & I needed a refresher. Your instructions are easy, & using specific measurements helps me. I'm a "follow the recipe" girl, so your details helped. Good job! ☺️
Thank you!!! After watching many many videos I finally tried your method and it turned out great! A bit too big for my Christmas wreath I think but well.. the bigger the better! Thanks again! :)
Those are beautiful, can you make them smaller and still be as beautiful? I buy ribbon all year, yard sales, thrift stores a friends give it to me. I have decorated presents and sometimes they tell me they don’t want to open it because it’s to pretty. What a compliment!
OMG. I winced when I saw you cut all that wired ribbon! lol. I just watched a couple of more "experienced" (hint, hint) ladies make their bows just before I found your tutorial. They measured and were so precise and traditional. Their bows were beautiful, too, but I was actually looking for the shape you made. I just need to add 4 long tails to trail down the tree. This year I am using my 7-foot white tree because we are moving soon. I love the shape of yours! I'm gonna go make mine now. Thanks so much! Love your eye makeup girl.
Liz I’ve been trying to make bows for my mantle for FOUR days now! I’m so frustrated because I never can get my loops even. You have taken the guesswork out for me...Finally! Tk you so much for your awesome video! I can’t wait to go get busy!
I am so glad that you made this tutorial ! I am awful at making bows and every time I show a bow in my tutorials it’s absolutely awful lol I always admit it’s my struggle! Thank you for sharing 🤗💕 will be practicing this !
Very good instructions, right down to how to fluff: that seems to be the hardest part. I wish you could have put it on something and done the very last fluff, but I'm feeling much more confident now. Thanks so much for this tutorial: I've looked at many videos on RUclips to get ready for my goddaughter's quinceneara/sweet 16. I really appreciate your time and help with this!
Ok, I did it with you and after some mess up on my part (lol) I got it, decent anyway. Best directions I’ve ever had. I’m not a bow maker so I just dove in and hoped for the best. Thanks for being there with me! Some fear of bow makings is gone! 😂🎄❤️
Thank you, Liz. You made it very simple and easy to follow. If you were going to hang the bow would you put a wire through the back? How would you add that?
Beautiful!! I have an EZ Bow Maker that my hubby bought me yrs ago. I use it a lot at Christmas. I seem to change my ribbon every year and do i have ribbon.LOL!
Great looking two-color bow. Love the idea of using the thin zip ties. I've always used floral wire and the zip ties would be much easier to manipulate. My. mother taught me to cut slits years ago. Glad to see the technique still being used. Thanks much for this excellent video!
Ooooomgosh #Liz I've got to have that shirt!!! Love your way of making a bow. I've been making them for a long time exactly the same way with the slit...and yes it take lots of practice practice practice! Hope you have a blessed weekend!!!
I love it!! I’m a little late finding your channel. I was wondering if you had a tutorial on how to make a bow when just one side has a pattern? We people with purely analytical brains need all the help we can get! 🙏
Hi Liz - I want to thank you so very much for your way of making a bow was so much easier for me than some of the others showed me. The only thing I would like it smaller loops for I would want to put on my handmade wreath. Your method is super easier - Thanks Liz !
Thanks for the tutorial. Now that you have made the bow how do you attach it to whatever you're putting it on. I'm making one for my front door wreath, should I attach with another cable tie?

Thank you for explaining bow making in detail . I have been playing with ribbon and attempting to make bows. Some turn out great, others not so great. Seeing this I can see where I can improve and customize to my personal preference.
This was literally my perfect!! Thanks!! I cut a v in the ends instead of a diagonal!
Thank you I’ve watched so many people and tutorials of how to make a bow and this is the first time I’ve seen cutting the slits in the middle. Everyone one else 1/2 turns the ribbon which is where I struggle the most so thank you for that trick I feel like I can make an actual cute bow now.

Hi Carole Quillen. Thank you for taking the time out of your day to watch my channel. 😍
Thank you for showing how to make a bow. I am awful at it. I bought a bowrama to help me make small ones. Loved it!!
Hi Liz! Thanks for the tutorial! I love how you teach us to use zip ties to hold the center together! It's been years since I worked with bows & I needed a refresher.

That's sweet. Enjoy making your crafts! :)

Hi priscilaw57. Thank you for taking the time out of your day to watch my channel. 😍
Just modify with less wide ribbons and make your folds less than 12" before folding in half and you'll be fine. 😉
I love when you say,"It is what it is"! I also say, "let's see what it wants to be." Thanks for the tutorial.
I'm so glad you love it, Laura H. Have fun watching! 💕
Thank you love it ❤
Wow! I have never seen it done this way and I am so excited to try this! I cannot thank you enough for demonstrating this method!!!!
Hi Krissy P! Thanks so much for watching my video. 😊
Those are beautiful, can you make them smaller and still be as beautiful? I buy ribbon all year, yard sales, thrift stores a friends give it to me. I have decorated presents and sometimes they tell me they don’t want to open it because it’s to pretty. What a compliment!
Finally I have successfully made a big bow - thank you so much! Every year I end up with a droopy bow but not this year. Great video 👍
This is the only bow video that I was actually able to follow. My bow came out great!! And it’s beautiful on top of my Xmas tree. Thank you!
OMG. I winced when I saw you cut all that wired ribbon! lol. I just watched a couple of more "experienced" (hint, hint) ladies make their bows just before I found your tutorial.

Hi Amanda! Thanks so much for watching my video. 😊
This is the easiest bow making video I have seen.
Great tutorial! One question though, what do you use to attach the bow to whatever you're using on?
Ok, I did it with you and after some mess up on my part (lol) I got it, decent anyway. Best directions I’ve ever had. I’m not a bow maker so I just dove in and hoped for the best. Thanks for being there with me! Some fear of bow makings is gone! 😂🎄❤️
Thank you for the much needed tutorial. Please do more
Hi Liz, last week I tried to make a bow, but I didn't know, it had to be cut in half. Now I know. Thanks for this tutorial.
You're welcome! Good luck with your bow project. :)
I love the bow! I think it could be even better to watch if the talking wouldn't be so lengthy.
Thank you for the easy step by step instructions.
You're welcome, Winner. Good luck with your bow. :)
That was a excellent video on how to make a bow. Thanks Liz
Thank you, Liz. You made it very simple and easy to follow. If you were going to hang the bow would you put a wire through the back? How would you add that?
I am glad you adjusted those two red pieces that were close to each other. It was killing little OCD here.
lol. Thanks for watching, Julie. Have a fun weekend. :)
Very beautiful and your tutorial is very clear I will certainly do some for myself
Thank you
Hi Sheila Nalliannan. I really appreciate you saying that. Thank you for watching my videos. 😍
Thank You . I am new to your channel. I never made a bow before . I think now I can watching you make it easy and fun
Hello Patricia LewisMarrin! Thanks for finding my channel. Stay tuned for more fun DIY videos. ❤️
Great bow making idea! I will be doing it your way from now on.😉 Your videos are so fun to watch and loving your ideas.
I'm glad you love it. Thanks for watching, Vicki. :)
I did my first bow for our real tree!! So true that it’s cheaper.
Ty for the wonderful turnout, and such a easy way to understand
Thank you!
Your explanation was great. I've always had to have my mother make mine. I'm going to go try one right now!! Thanks Liz💝👍
Good luck with your bow project! :)
Thanks Liz I now know how to make a bow!
So, you made 6 loops with double ribbon. If I use only one ribbon do I need 12 loops? I am using velvet wired ribbon for wreaths.
Oh my gosh, that was so easy and so much fun. Thank you.
Wouldn’t it make sense to insert the tail when securing all the layers? After all the fluff n then to go back in …….?
I really appreciate this tutorial I need it. Oh I also ordered two shirts My husband says I start watching Christmas movies before Halloween.
Thanks!! Been using a bowdarba but customer wants a big bow! So gonna try u method!!
That's great! I wish you all the best on your project, Linda Hollowell. 😍
Its so pretty😍never ever tried, attempted or had desire to make a bow till now!! Thanks for the tips Liz!👍👍🤗
It's my pleasure! I'd love to see photos of your bow when done. Good luck! :)
@@lizfenwickdiy I've posted things on Instagram, but a day later, no likes, no comments so I just delete them. 😧
Yay, I struggle making bows... thanks you I’m definitely going to use your tips!!

Beautiful!! I have an EZ Bow Maker that my hubby bought me yrs ago. I use it a lot at Christmas. I seem to change my ribbon every year and do i have ribbon.LOL!
Thanks this is so much better than the way I knew!
Great looking two-color bow. Love the idea of using the thin zip ties. I've always used floral wire and the zip ties would be much easier to manipulate. My. mother taught me to cut slits years ago. Glad to see the technique still being used. Thanks much for this excellent video!
Beautiful! Thank you so much! Maybe I can finally do this now.
Simpler to make than others. Thx!!
