Ribbon Bows [Quick and Easy Technique To Make Perfect Bows Every Time]
Making a bow out of ribbon appears to be quite easy, but in fact, is quite difficult. We all know how to tie our shoes, but a decorative bow is much harder. I spent years struggling to make a beautiful bow with very little success. Since learning this technique, my ribbon bows now come out perfect nearly every time. These quick and easy ribbon bows work well for crafts, presents, and decorations. I thought this would be a great crafting skill to share with all of you.
Start by choosing your ribbon. The thickness of the ribbon has an impact on how you will hold your hands and the length you need to cut. I like to use a ribbon with wire in it because it is easier to shape.
2 1/2 inch - hold your 4 fingers very wide, cut 4 feet of ribbon
2 inch - hold your 4 fingers wide, cut 3.5 feet of ribbon
1 1/2 inch - hold your 2 fingers very wide, cut 3 feet of ribbon
1 inch - hold your 2 fingers wide, cut 2 feet of ribbon
1/2 inch - hold your 2 fingers close, cut 1 foot of ribbon for a single bow which looks better in this size

To Marie and Emmaline the lost arts are the useful knowledge related to simple living, country living, modern homesteading, and old-fashioned traditions that are not readily being passed down from generation to generation as they used to. It includes sustainable living skills like gardening, canning basics, and homesteading skills. Some of Marie and Emmaline's favorite hard skills include boiling water bath canning, pressure canning, steam juicing, dehydrating, and fermenting our own food to add to our pantries and food storage.
What Are the Lost Arts? Lost arts are the basic skills for self-sufficient living that have been forgotten or replaced by modern technology. --- WISDOM PRESERVED
Marie and Emmaline’s friendship was almost instantaneous. Within 20 minutes of their first meeting, they were discussing their shared passion for the lost arts. Their collective enthusiasm has created this worthy endeavor, and their individual strengths have made a project of this magnitude possible.
