but any cuts it is great!
To begin, build four eighteen inch strips of tape, double sided...
too hence it's non sticky, too it's similar potent ribbons!
Take i too crease it inwards half. Take 18" of necktie wire too roll it
simply about the middle too twist it tight.
Like so. The record holds its cast neat too gathers perfectly!
Repeat amongst the side past times side strip...starting amongst it slightly off
too hence the loops demo similar a star.

Wrap over i halt to the center
To build a big loop
And twist it amongst the wire. Just two twists is all it takes...
No bespeak for overkill!
Wrap the other halt too twist.
That volition utilisation i entire strip.
too hence the loops demo similar a star.
crease over too twist
Both ends...
Then utilisation the 3rd strip too create it again,
filling the terminal petty slice of the star shape.

Set that slice aside too create the top slice now.
Get you lot fourth strip of tape...and some other 18" slice of necktie wire.
Start at the halt too build a circle. Twist it off amongst the wire.

Then utilisation that "tail" slice to build loops too necktie them off inwards the center.
Like this.
And this.
Then, because I had no thought how long of a slice I needed,
I ran out of length. So I made some other slice of tape, with
a petty mucilaginous halt showing too simply taped it correct on!
These are things you lot simply can't create amongst ribbon!

Continuing looping until your top slice has half dozen loops
and a centre loop!
and a centre loop!
almost.
nearly.
overstep on going.
and...
there!
Now you lot own got two pieces.
Big loop base of operations too modest loop topper!
Big loop base of operations too modest loop topper!
Use the remaining wires to loop the two pieces together.
Twist wires at the underside tight!
I used the excess wires to record it on my mailbox.
Cut two strips for tails...I similar the pinked edge.

Tape on the dorsum of the bow.
Tape a strip of record that fits simply about your mailbox and
Tape the wires of the bow correct where you lot desire it!
So cute too festive! It mightiness remain upwards all year!
