I know this video is years old, but I have watched at least 20-30 different people make bow videos on RUclips, and regardless of what I watched, I was “bow challenged”…I.e., couldn’t make a decent bow no matter what. Even using the Bowdabras, mine just never looked nice. HOWEVER! Watching this video and following your explicit directions, I can now make a bow! I can make a decent bow! I can make a nice bow that I’m not ashamed to put on my wreaths and craft projects! I have saved this video so I can always refer to it for different bows. THANK YOU! THANK YOU! THANK YOU! The BEST bow tutorial I have ever seen!
Hi Cindie! Your kind words mean a lot to me and I’m happy the video was helpful for you. Have fun making lots of beautiful Bows and always be proud of your work because we are always our own worst critics. Thank you so much, Lori.
The first one is the Macy's bow....Mr. Macy needed a way to make bows in advance and store them to make wrapping gifts more efficient. So, he invented a V cutter that cuts the V's in the bows......You just tie them off and store them pre-made then, when you need one just get it out, fluff it and add tails!! Quick and simple for his employees! He was a genius of his time!!!! My grandmother used this type of bow in all her clothing stores since Mr. Macy started selling the cutter and bowmaker!!!!! Actually, I think I still own the original cutter and bowmaker from one of her stores. Nice to see someone teaching this easy method!!! It's a lost technique today!!! It will allow you to make ANY bow in advance and store it for later without flattening or bending.
Hello Jessica! That is such wonderful information and I’m so glad to know all of it now. It’s so sweet that your grandmother used this technique in her store and how cool that you own the cutter and bowmaker. This technique is very easy and you’re right about it being so convenient in making bows in advance. Thank you for sharing that story with me and I appreciate you watching, Lori.
Really? That's a great story. When my daughter gets a bit older, I plan on teaching her this method. I love it! and I love that first bow as well. Gorgeous.
I swear, I've watched 100 bow making videos, and cannot make a bow. I watched your video twice, paused and rewatched parts, and I can FINALLY make a bow! Thank you so much!
Thank you for your video. This really helped me get started. I used a couple of your techniques together for one bow. I really like that you mentioned accomodations for people with problems with their hands. A lot of people don't take this into consideration, but even those of us with arthritis like to do arts and crafts! Thanks again
I have struggled and struggled to make bows for years! My Mom is a great bow maker, and she tried to teach me, but I could never figure out all the looping and twisting! Lol! But, you are Amazing! You are so thorough with your step by step directions it helped me SO much! My husband is an artist and he brought some ribbon home and with pleading in his eyes asked me to make a bow for some of his art pieces! I panicked a little, but then I remembered I saw a bow tutorial on your channel! So I pulled it up, watched it carefully and just gave it my best try! I was able to make two bows! They aren’t super fancy, but they are what he needed! So thank you, from me and my hubby!💖💖💖
Hello Jennifer! Your kind words mean so much to me and I couldn’t be more happy that my video helped you to make bows for your hubby. I’m sure they were beautiful and would love to have you post pictures of them on my Facebook page. It was actually my sister who taught me how to make bows by hand so I was very lucky. I appreciate you watching and please remember sharing is caring. Thank you, Lori.
This tutorial was 3yrs ago but in my opinion is the most complete that I ever seen, thank you for the great and excellent tutorial I love it God bless you and your family 🤗
Thank you so much for all the lessons on bow making. You made it easy to follow to make so many bows! You were easy to understand. Your videos are always so clear and easy to follow. I made your witch hat one last year and I love it!! I do have arthritis in my hands so it does get hard to do things but I still love crafting. Thank you for sharing your talents!!
I'm rather new to wreath making. The majority of the skills I have learned have been from your videos. Thank you for your excellent instructions. You have some of the best tutorials out there. You always have great ideas, lots of options, and interesting techniques. Many of the videos out there these days show you a pretty products at the end, but they're very short on the details of how they actually made it. When you're learning, it is all about the details! Thank you so much
I broke my wrist this past summer and have just now picked up ribbon again. I watched this video again and decided to finish a wreath a started years ago that was one of my first ones. I chose the Hobo bow and I’m very pleased with how it came out. Thanks Lori!
Hello Margaret! I’m so sorry to hear about your wrist and happy that you’re healed now. I think it’s wonderful that you finished your wreath and I’m sure it’s beautiful. I would love to see pictures that you can share in my free craft group on Facebook called “Hard Working Moms Everyday Craft Dreamers.” Thank you for watching, Lori.

Thank you so much for the wonderful video. I love the way you explain the steps, and you make sure to take your time.

God bless and stay safe.
Hi Phyllis! You are so sweet and I appreciate your kind words. I’m glad you enjoyed the video and hope you will give these bows a try. Just make sure you use Wired Ribbon. Thank you so much and God bless you too. Lori
Lori, You made making bows so understandable. You took your time, explained how and why and what you were doing, it was a fantastic tutorial. All the other tutorials I’ve watched fly through them so quickly, but you are a natural teacher. Thank you and God Bless. Sue
Lori, where can I get a fluff box. It makes it look so easy to fluff up a bow. You are so talented and I love your tutorials. Thank you for helping us in our wreath making. I will never do as well as you.
Enjoyed watching your bow tutorial. Didn't know there was that many different bows to create. You are so creative and love that you walk us step by step to make a bow. All bows turned out very pretty.
This video was so clear, u took ur time slows down and showed all steps including placing it on the wreath and fluffing. I really appreciated ur help. Thanks again
Hi Tonya! Your kind words mean a lot to me and I’m happy the video was helpful for you. I do have a whole playlist on Bows and here’s the link. ruclips.net/p/PLxYjdVUk6ijTDmIdK172hyHCCWxZF6QZq&si=p28L1RuRntY4clKN. Thank you for watching, Lori.
Hello, there Dianne. Good question, one too many. I will have another making them with the Pro Bow and also with the Bowdabra to show many techniques they are many ways. I am so happy you have enjoyed, the tutorial. Don't forget to like and share. Thank you, Lori.
I love making bows and am always trying to learn how to make different ones. Everybody has done a decent job on their training videos, however, you have done an outstanding job! I have learned more and gained more insight in this one video by you than I have from all the others combined. It's your style of keeping it simple and straightforward that makes the little light bulb in my brain come on and illuminate the possibilities. Whatever it is, you do it so well! Thank you so much for sharing. Subscribed!!
That is the sweetest compliment that anyone has ever given to me and it makes my heart so happy to know how much this video has helped you. Bows can be very challenging and intimidating which is why I did this video. Thank you so much and welcome to the Hard Working Mom family. Lori.
Hello Rossy and you are very welcome. I’m happy you enjoyed the video and hope you will give them a try. Thank you very much and I appreciate you watching, Lori.
Hi Lori. I have just found this. I have been following you for a while now and I have always wanted to make bows and never could. Thank you so much for sharing this. I can't wait to try these!!
Thank you, Sonya. I am so glad you have, I will have another one soon using the ProBow and also using the bowdabra and more ways. Thank you, Like and share, Lori.
enjoyed watching your tutorial on making bows. My daughter in law is great in making bows, so I wanted to surprise her this Christmas with beautiful bows! Thanks to you I just might achieve my goal!
Hello Carol! I’m so glad you enjoyed the tutorial and I know you will make beautiful bows to surprise her which is very sweet. The more you practice, the better you will become. Thank you for watching, Lori.
Hello Steph and you are so welcome! I’m really happy that this video helped you and that it was easy to understand. Thank you so much for watching, Lori.
Thank you for your video!!! I always wondered how in these beautiful bows were made! Thank you! Now I feel brave enough to try to make one! Thank you!!!!
Thank you so very much for this video! You have really excelled in teaching how to make bow-making easier! I am so appreciative of learning how to make bows w/o that endless twisting and cramping of my hands! Much appreciated!!
Aww!! Thank you, very much, so glad to read this, it makes me so happy!! Thank you, I also have a new tutorial I just did yesterday night on Facebook on bows. As soon as I can I will bring it over here to RUclips. Don't forget to like and share. Thank you, Lori.
Lori, you are amazing! I have been watching your tutorials for about 2 months. Thanks to you my wreath making has greatly improved. I still have not mastered any bow. As you said the wreath making came easy, but the bows are SO hard for me and I think with some wreaths a beautiful bow would make the wreath complete. The bow gives it the WOW factor. Thank you for passing on your gift to me. I watch religiously. Darcel
Hello, there Darcel and welcome. Aww, you are welcome anytime. Well now, you have tons to choose from. You are so welcome and they sure do make a huge statement, I will be making another tutorial, much later on with more styles again and using the Pro Bow and the Bowdabra. Like and share. Thank you, Lori.
Thank you so much for this 🎀 I was struggling with my first one! You helped clear up what I was doing wrong. You'd laugh because I did at myself. I had cut up about 4 yards of ribbon into unusable pieces. No the starburst wouldn't even had helped. Hahaha! I even tried making tiny bows out of it, no go! It was that sheer type ribbon. Live and learn to watch you first!
Hello Angela! You are so welcome and I’m glad that this video is helping. Making bows is what my viewers struggle with the most and it just takes time and practice so don’t feel bad and no reason to laugh at yourself. I’m always here if you have any questions. Thank you so much, Lori.
Lori, may I first offer my thanks to your awesome sister for teaching you. Now, I would like to thank you for for sticking with it and developing these skills. Lastly, thanks for sharing this knowledge. Lady you rock. I mean it not since college have had an instructor with the knowledge but also an ease of explanation. Thank you.
Oh you are so sweet and I can’t thank you enough for your kind words. I was very blessed to have my sister teach me how to make bows and I have made it my mission to teach you and all my wonderful viewers to do the same. Thank you again, Lori.
Thank you SO much, glad I watched to the end as the last 3 ribbon bow is what I am making! All your other bows are fab as well! I appreciate your thorough delivery and alternatives for those of us with hand issues. Thank you again! Merry Christmas 🎄
Hello and welcome, there Kelsi. Thank you, very much. I am very happy you have enjoyed the tutorial. I do have a new one soon I'll bring it over from Facebook to here. I hope it has helped. Don't forget to like and share. Merry Christmas, to you, too. Thank you, Lori.
Hello Yolie! I really appreciate your kind words and I’m happy you enjoyed the tutorial. Have you tried using a bowmaker to help you because it would be easier on your hands? Thank you so much, Lori.

Lori, I am a newbie to your blog, I must say, of all the tutorials I have watched your teaching are the best, I can see what you are doing, you are talking about what you are doing. Most have the camera off where you are watching half of what they are doing, they are talking about something else, they are waving there hands and playing with the product, it’s such a turn off, you are quick and educated on what you are showing us, thank you thank you great tut❤️

WOW🎉🎉🎉🎉 Genius..Excellent tutorial ..You made life easier by compiling all techniques & in one video instead of scrambling looking for a particular .,I’m a newbie & yes struggling like you. Now I’m so thankful for making this video. You’re excellent teacher. Can’t wait to make a wreath just full of bows. God bless Lori.
Hello Regina and yay! I’m so happy the video was helpful and that you made your first bow tonight. I always say how important it is to practice and be patient because it will all pay off. Great job and thank you for watching, Lori.
Such beautiful bows! I struggle making bows and your instructions are so easy to follow and require less work than the way I learned to make them. I think I can master one or two of these. I especially love the spiky/starburst bow!! I'm wondering where you buy your large rolls of ribbon. Thanks again!!
Hello and welcome, there Gina. Thank you, very much. I sure do hope not only make one but more than one. I get them from my wholesalers and also some of them are from Sam's club from the Christmas selection those I used for my tutorials, not for sale. I also have an Etsy store where I sell them as, well. Thank you, like and share, Lori.
Hello am here because it’s Christmas season and I bought a plain wreath which was way much cheaper than the decorated one, I really love this it looks so simple while you’re making it, I have tried making bows before and it’s like getting a cow out of a ditch but hopefully after watching your videos I will be able to improve, practice makes perfect, you’re a good trainer. God bless you for taking your time.
Hi Maureen! I hope you had a great Thanksgiving and I promise you will get better at making bows. Just watch as many videos as you can and practice. You can use some inexpensive ribbon from Dollar Tree so you’re not spending a lot practicing. I appreciate your kind words and God bless you too. Thank you so much, Lori.
You are welcome, Clara. Yes, they are very easy and I hope these would work for you and everyone else. I will make another, much later on in more different ways and with the Pro Bow and also the Bowdabra. Thank you, like and share, Lori.
OMGOSH this video has helped me SO much! I have problems with my hands when trying to hold, twist and pinch... so these are so much more helpful for me!!! Thank You So much! You’re my all time favorite woman to watch!!!! Thank You for all your helpful videos and instructions!! ❤️
Hello and welcome, Amber. Thank you so much for all your kindness. I am happy they will help you and don’t be afraid to make any of them. If your not sure use the ugliest ribbons you have and don’t like and practice with them. I did this tutorial for the people that have problems with hands, making the bows and so much more. So I am very thankful that it will help you. You are welcome always. Don’t forget to like and share. Thank you, Lori.
Lori!! I took you up on the Etsy store and ordered some awesome pretty ribbon! Please let me know when you start having Mesh and Wreath forms/ribbon/decor sets!
Thank you so much, Amber. As soon as I get back, I will get everything done. I sure will let you know when I’ll have more available, as well. Thank you, very much. Lori

Hello Tracy! You are so sweet and I’m really happy you enjoyed the video. Your kind words mean a lot to me. I pray you and your family are staying safe as well and God bless. Lori.
Oh thank you so much and I’m happy you enjoy watching my videos. I actually changed the way I make my bows and now use zip ties with a pipe cleaner fed in before tightening all the way so yes you can absolutely do that. I appreciate you watching, Lori.
I Love watching your videos you’re one of my favorites to watch and learn from you explain everything so well. You’re a great crafter. Keep up the GREAT Work ❤️
Thank you, Pramilia and welcome. You could do it it’s very simple and if you need help, few free to contact me. Don’t forget to like and share. Thank you, Lori.
Aww, so sorry, Pramilia. I know I have people for the UK as well and other countries and they don't have the access to get supplies. So, sorry. But you know what you could try this tutorial and maybe just make it with all fabrics. Make it your own vision, not necessarily you have to have mesh or ribbons. I will show you two of them. Thank you, so much for watching and you are more than welcome if you ever need help. I will send you the links, below. Thank you, Lori. ruclips.net/video/2NQ-nsaUi6Q/видео.html That is made with tule, which is a type of fabric that is most common to be used in dresses and decorations. The next one is just fabric cut into pieces you could make it in solid colors and add whatever you would like it to have. ruclips.net/video/vOVqUwfGbLM/видео.html
Absolutely beautiful..... Thank you so much I used to have issues with bows .... well not anymore people come to me to make bows if I forget I come back to my bow bible .

God bless and stay safe.
Hi Phyllis! You are so sweet and I appreciate your kind words. I’m glad you enjoyed the video and hope you will give these bows a try. Just make sure you use Wired Ribbon. Thank you so much and God bless you too. Lori
Lori, You made making bows so understandable. You took your time, explained how and why and what you were doing, it was a fantastic tutorial. All the other tutorials I’ve watched fly through them so quickly, but you are a natural teacher. Thank you and God Bless. Sue
Thank you so much, Sue. God, bless you, too. Thank you, Lori.

Lori, where can I get a fluff box. It makes it look so easy to fluff up a bow. You are so talented and I love your tutorials. Thank you for helping us in our wreath making. I will never do as well as you.
You make it look so simple. Thank you.

I love making bows and am always trying to learn how to make different ones. Everybody has done a decent job on their training videos, however, you have done an outstanding job! I have learned more and gained more insight in this one video by you than I have from all the others combined. It's your style of keeping it simple and straightforward that makes the little light bulb in my brain come on and illuminate the possibilities. Whatever it is, you do it so well! Thank you so much for sharing. Subscribed!!
That is the sweetest compliment that anyone has ever given to me and it makes my heart so happy to know how much this video has helped you. Bows can be very challenging and intimidating which is why I did this video. Thank you so much and welcome to the Hard Working Mom family. Lori.
Fantastic tutorial

Thank you so very much for this video! You have really excelled in teaching how to make bow-making easier! I am so appreciative of learning how to make bows w/o that endless twisting and cramping of my hands! Much appreciated!!

Hello there and welcome, V. Thank you, very much. Don't forget to like and share. Thank you, Lori.
Lori, you are amazing! I have been watching your tutorials for about 2 months. Thanks to you my wreath making has greatly improved. I still have not mastered any bow. As you said the wreath making came easy, but the bows are SO hard for me and I think with some wreaths a beautiful bow would make the wreath complete. The bow gives it the WOW factor.
Thank you for passing on your gift to me. I watch religiously. Darcel
Hello, there Darcel and welcome. Aww, you are welcome anytime. Well now, you have tons to choose from. You are so welcome and they sure do make a huge statement, I will be making another tutorial, much later on with more styles again and using the Pro Bow and the Bowdabra. Like and share. Thank you, Lori.
Thanks you are wonderful now I am going to make my bows
Thank you so much for this 🎀 I was struggling with my first one! You helped clear up what I was doing wrong. You'd laugh because I did at myself. I had cut up about 4 yards of ribbon into unusable pieces. No the starburst wouldn't even had helped. Hahaha! I even tried making tiny bows out of it, no go! It was that sheer type ribbon. Live and learn to watch you first!
Hello Angela! You are so welcome and I’m glad that this video is helping. Making bows is what my viewers struggle with the most and it just takes time and practice so don’t feel bad and no reason to laugh at yourself. I’m always here if you have any questions. Thank you so much, Lori.
Hi Lori, thank you so much for your bow tutorial! I’ve finally made a bow (using my bowdabra) that I was happy enough to put on my Easter wreath.
Looking for easy, simple ways to make bows. Finally!! Thank you for the easy instructions. I can imagine a bow wreath for next Christmas!
Thanks so much! I now can make beautiful bows thanks again! Excellent job and instructions. Keep up the good work

Oh you are so sweet and I can’t thank you enough for your kind words. I was very blessed to have my sister teach me how to make bows and I have made it my mission to teach you and all my wonderful viewers to do the same. Thank you again, Lori.
Thank you SO much, glad I watched to the end as the last 3 ribbon bow is what I am making! All your other bows are fab as well! I appreciate your thorough delivery and alternatives for those of us with hand issues. Thank you again! Merry Christmas 🎄

Lori, I am a newbie to your blog, I must say, of all the tutorials I have watched your teaching are the best, I can see what you are doing, you are talking about what you are doing. Most have the camera off where you are watching half of what they are doing, they are talking about something else, they are waving there hands and playing with the product, it’s such a turn off, you are quick and educated on what you are showing us, thank you thank you great tut❤️
This bow tutorial was great!!! Thank you for showing us all the varieties of bows. These slow step by step instructions were so helpful.

Now I’m so thankful for making this video. You’re excellent teacher. Can’t wait to make a wreath just full of bows. God bless Lori.

Im so thankful for your absolute techniques and wonderful patience. After so many many many times and wasted ribbon finally I made one bow tonight 🥰🥰🥰
Hello Regina and yay! I’m so happy the video was helpful and that you made your first bow tonight. I always say how important it is to practice and be patient because it will all pay off. Great job and thank you for watching, Lori.
Such beautiful bows! I struggle making bows and your instructions are so easy to follow and require less work than the way I learned to make them. I think I can master one or two of these. I especially love the spiky/starburst bow!! I'm wondering where you buy your large rolls of ribbon. Thanks again!!
Hello and welcome, there Gina. Thank you, very much. I sure do hope not only make one but more than one. I get them from my wholesalers and also some of them are from Sam's club from the Christmas selection those I used for my tutorials, not for sale. I also have an Etsy store where I sell them as, well. Thank you, like and share, Lori.
I agree 💯%. I watched one earlier and worked along to utter FAIL! 😋😥😜
Hello am here because it’s Christmas season and I bought a plain wreath which was way much cheaper than the decorated one, I really love this it looks so simple while you’re making it, I have tried making bows before and it’s like getting a cow out of a ditch but hopefully after watching your videos I will be able to improve, practice makes perfect, you’re a good trainer. God bless you for taking your time.
Hi Maureen! I hope you had a great Thanksgiving and I promise you will get better at making bows. Just watch as many videos as you can and practice. You can use some inexpensive ribbon from Dollar Tree so you’re not spending a lot practicing. I appreciate your kind words and God bless you too. Thank you so much, Lori.
You are a bow genius!
You are so welcome, there Judy. Don't forget to like an share, Lori.

Aww, so sorry, Pramilia. I know I have people for the UK as well and other countries and they don't have the access to get supplies. So, sorry. But you know what you could try this tutorial and maybe just make it with all fabrics. Make it your own vision, not necessarily you have to have mesh or ribbons. I will show you two of them. Thank you, so much for watching and you are more than welcome if you ever need help. I will send you the links, below. Thank you, Lori.

That is made with tule, which is a type of fabric that is most common to be used in dresses and decorations. The next one is just fabric cut into pieces you could make it in solid colors and add whatever you would like it to have.
