How to Tie a Bow • Video Tutorial #1

Alright.... let me clarify that this is my first video tutorial! Making this video was a lot harder than it seemed, and I'm sure with practice I can master the video tutorial world. Please excuse all my mistakes and the fact that all you can see in this video are my boobs... HELLLLOOO! :D

Any-who, I hope you all learned how I tie my bows. I had tons of requests for this tutorial, and would love to provide more and sharpen my video skills. If you would like to see more tutorials from me, please just give me topics in my handy chat box.

Some awesome ribbon sites...

May Arts, The Ribbon Retreat, Making Memories

Here are just a few things to remember...

1. Use quality ribbon that is soft and flowing and easy to tie with. Try to avoid hard, crunchy ribbon.

2. Use an anchor for your bow. This guarantees a nice tight bow. You do not want a loose sloppy bow.

3. Make sure your bow is tight. Pinch and pull tight while tying your bow.

4. Fluff up your loops with your finger tips making them round and happy!

Thanks for all your sweet comments!
