~ DIY ~ Fancy Flower Bow

How about doing something fun today. Let me show you how to make a fancy bow from a ribbon.

Step 1:

Cut a length of ribbon of about 22 - 24 inches.
















Step 2:

Take one edge and roll it over.















Step 3:

Hold the rolled edge between your thumb and index finger.














Step 4:

Take the hanging edge of the ribbon and making a petal fold it in towards you. Hold it between your thumb and index finger.














Step 5:

Make another petal by folding the ribbon back up, away from you. Hold the fold between your two fingers.















Step 6:

Now we'll make petals around the center. Angle the ribbon slightly to the left.














Step 7:

Fold the hanging edge and hold it between your fingers making another petal. Automatically, the end comes on the opposite side.














Step 8:

Fold the ribbon upward making a petal. The end of the ribbon comes back on the opposite side.













Step 9:

Fold the ribbon making another petal.













Step 10:

Now the ribbon is on the right side. Fold it back downward and secure the ribbon between your fingers.













Step 11:

Continue adding more petals as per your wish.













Step 12:

Cut off the extra ribbon and staple at the center. Add this beautiful bow to a gift box and make your packing look more pretty!













Hope you guys enjoyed making this pretty and simple bow. Try it and leave your comments. Bye-bye :)
