Don’t apologize for fluffing bows, they have to be fluffed to look their best. I hate when bows are flat. They’re the star of the gift package or wall decor. This black and brown combination is so rich and classy looking, love it!
It makes me crazy at Christmas when businesses, cities, and residents put out their decorations with smashed bows. You can tell they just got it out of storage and threw it up there! Wouldn’t take the 2 extra minutes it would take to fluff the bows to make a huge different in the way it looks. SMH.
I'm going to call you the bow man. I'm so glad you love to make bows. It really shows in how you are sharing with us. You encourage me when I feel helpless to make anything beautiful out of ribbon 🎀. Because of you I'm able to make some nice bows especially for centerpieces for our senior's get together at our church each month. When I get raves I tell them that it's your fault. Haha. I love this bow and the two contrasts. It looks great together. Thank you so much again. I appreciate you. Keep showing those bows 😊
Hi there. Thank you so so much for such a lovely and inspiring comment. You made my day start with a huge grin as I read those words. I’m so glad that you were encouraged when you felt helpless and made beautiful bows for the senior centre. Take care and keep making those gorgeous bows. 😊
Who doesn't love fuffing bows? Someone I don't wanna be friends with that's for sure. Love the details you share in all your tutorials. This video will be a go to for me for sure!
Thank you so much. Now making can be a bit daunting at times, just take your time and make sure to have fun with it. You’ll be a bow making master in no time 😊
I do love the combination of ribbons.. And I appreciate how you actually show us with the ruler of how long to make things... It's such a help!! And Dave I do believe you are the best ribbon fluffer I know... 😜 Fluff on my friend!! And I can't wait to see the grapevine wreath you're going to make.. 👍👍😁😁😁🤗🤗🤗💗💗💗
Looks really simple and pretty. I have always avoided making bows because I am not good at it whatsoever but with your instructions I will definitely try again. Thank you so much! 💜
Thank you so much. And yes, give it a try. I was a bit so good bow maker until I practiced and practiced…and took my time. Now I’m loving it. Have fun!!! 😊
I missed you. Where have you been? Anyway, welcome back because I know there are going to be something that we have not seen before. Thank you so much. Amen
Hi Katrina…I missed everyone as well. I took some time off as my full time job was very demanding the last month…so I needed to recharge and rejuvenate myself. I am back in full swing and you’ll be seeing more videos. 😊😊😊
@@DavesWreaths Welcome back again because I missed seeing what wonderful ideas you designed. Thank you so much for all of your tutorials because now I am getting better at making bow. Keep up the great work. Amen
Nice to see you back, Dave. ❤the striped and checked ribbon. 👍 I'll have to start checking out Michael's for ribbon. My store seems to have the same old same old ribbon. Need a change. Very pretty and love that fluff❣❣ Have a great weekend😊😊
I just have to say wow your amazing dear! I’m so glad I found you on here today your tutorials are absolutely perfect with great detail and you just make it seem so easy so fingers crossed 🤞 I’m gonna go to Michael’s get some things and give it a try 😁
Yes, you can do that. I have used hot glue in the past to hold ribbons together. It's done a good job, but always do a testing piece first...just to make sure it works on the ribbon you have. 😊
Hi love all your videos & you! I have a quick ? - so for this bow I am trying to use up some ribbon that I made a ribbon wreath with - I have 3 different 24" pcs & 3 matching pieces of 24" ribbon, can this be done with 6 ribbons instead of 9? hope this makes sense!
Hi Jean, thank you so so much for those kind words. Yes, you can totally do this with 6 pieces of ribbon, that is totally fine. The bow will be a tad smaller with only 6 loops, but it'll still be gorgeous. Have fun bow making. 😊😊😊
as you know I am probably your biggest fan I love everything you do and I love this style of bow...... and of course you make it look so easy and simple but ......... I have only one question ...... Why the heck is making this style bow and it turning out right impossible for me ???? Please please help your American friend figure out just what I am doing wrong ......😢😢😢
Hi Debra, yes indeed!!! I'm sorry you're having issues making bows. Trust me, so did I in the beginning of my crafting adventures. I was all left thumbs....lol. Two things that helped me.....time and practice. I know that sounds a bit lame, but it truly helped me. I took my time, like just totally slowed down and thought about each step and didn't rush anything and I did it over and over and over again. Then one day, it just came to me, and it will come to you as well. I'll send you some positive bow making vibes and hopefully that will help too. Take care and don't get frustrated...keep smiling...crafting is fun. teehee. :)
. Thank you and I'm not going to give up just yet.... when I get to the point where I just wanna throw it in the trash I'm going to reach out and grab out to catch some of those positive vibes instead lol
I can’t get mine to look this good :( when going between your peace fingers are you stacking them on top of each other in a line or randomly placing them??
Hi there, for me, I usually have them randomly placed rather than in a line. It's easier to move them around between your fingers than after you tie it all together. Hope that helps you out. Thanks.
Hi there, I generally use 2.5" wired ribbon for my bows and wreaths. You can also use 1.5" or 4" ribbon as well, if you wish to use different sized ribbons. Thank you. 😊
You are definitely "The Bowmaster". KUDOS!!! 😊
No fail instructions. I gotta try it the exact way with girly ribbon colors and patterns. 🙏🤩👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽
Just watched this video AGAIN while making a bow for my most recent wreath! Love it! Thx again for sharing this video with us!! ⛄️🎄💚
Hi Donna, so glad you found this video helpful with bow making. 😊😊😊
I loved this bow. I can't believe how much I am falling in love with the burlap look.
Hi there and thank you so much. Yes, the natural look of burlap does tend to lite one in doesn’t it. Haha. I love it too 😊

I love your video BUT I Need to use just regular ribbon (2023) can I use a dab of craft glue to hold it in place? Any other suggestions?
Yes, you can do that. I have used hot glue in the past to hold ribbons together. It's done a good job, but always do a testing piece first...just to make sure it works on the ribbon you have. 😊

I can’t get mine to look this good :( when going between your peace fingers are you stacking them on top of each other in a line or randomly placing them??
Hi there, for me, I usually have them randomly placed rather than in a line. It's easier to move them around between your fingers than after you tie it all together. Hope that helps you out. Thanks.
What kind of ruler do you have? I have never seen that kind before..
Thank you I am hoping with your instructions I will be able to make a bow. I love your work and how you give instructions. Thank you.
Question- do the ribbons have to be the same width when you're making a bow or making a wreath?
Hi there, I generally use 2.5" wired ribbon for my bows and wreaths. You can also use 1.5" or 4" ribbon as well, if you wish to use different sized ribbons. Thank you. 😊
Kpk
that just doesnt look like 24"
I'm super confused wouldnt your tails be 12 " ??
Hi there, the full length is the 24" and bent in half, thus making a 12" tail. Thank you. 😊
Beautiful
What kind of ruler do you have? I have never seen that kind before..
Hi there, this is just a crafting ruler that I purchased off of Amazon.
