This week was filled with Christmas prepping; wrapping, decorating, putting lights up and other mini DIY projects. It has also been a trying with with attempting to potty train my puppy. For some reason he is just not getting it, which is becoming pretty stressful. However I am thrilled for the weekend which includes a gingerbread house decorating party, a baby shower and candle making. What are your weekend plans?
Step 1: Fold the ribbon in half and give yourself enough tail - this part will be the center of your bow.
Step 2: Scrunch the ribbon together and hold with your thumb.
Step 4: After making two loops, insert your pointer finger in one loop and your middle finger in another. Pull both loops up to see if they are the same size. If they're not, adjust them until they are. Continue making loops in that way until you have enough. Make sure to check that all of the loops are the same size. For a full bow, make 5 - 6 loops on either side. For a more casual bow, make about 3-4 loops on either side.
Step 5: Wrap a piece of wire (3-5 inches) around the bow on either side of the center loop to secure.
Step 6: Spread out the loops and cut your tails as desired.
While everyone is out Black Friday shopping I begin to put up my Christmas decorations. This year since I will be moving into a new house right before Christmas, I am helping my mum decorate instead. Here are some porches that we a drawing inspiration from. How do you decorate for Christmas?
