How to tie a bow beautifully

We look forward to the holidays and, of course, gifts. They are nice to receive and nice to give. Packaging gifts, we pay attention to every detail. It is very important that the bow is tied correctly and looks beautiful, because much depends on this. Varieties of this decoration is very much, and everyone should be able to learn how to make gifts with his or her help. And yet, how to tie a bow? To begin with, the main types of decoration are: terry, classic, strict, long, bicolour and in the form of a flower (it can be chrysanthemum, dahlias, etc.). Depending on the time available, everyone himself determines which bow to make, since for some it takes about 30 minutes.

So, we learn to tie a bow. To begin with, we will stock up with the necessary tools, namely: decorative tape 2-4 m long, with scissors, wire or cord, double-sided tape. Depending on the type of decoration, you need to calculate the costs of the tape (for example, for a ball we will need about 3 m, so it is recommended to buy it more, just in case). To understand how to tie a bow-ball, we will describe step by step all the necessary actions.

We begin work with a tape, we make a hank in the form of a roll and wrap it about 10 times. Now you need to slightly flatten the bow (for convenient work with scissors). You can make notes on the material or simply cut corners from two sides. They should be pretty large, but do not overdo it so that the decoration does not break up eventually. Next, the sections must be connected to each other and fastened with a wire or a cord. It should be as thin as possible and hold the edges tightly together.

At the next stage, we swirl the ribbon and shape the ball. Pull the loop past the loop, and see the preliminary result (of course, it's best to start from the inside). To make the bow turned out to be the most beautiful, pulling the loop, turn it around. The main thing is, do not take your fingers off the base of the jewelry, as it is the lace that connects the two halves, then you will need to attach the bow to the box. This is done very easily with the use of Scotch tape. If desired, you can add antennae, beads or other details. But in general, that's the whole technology.

You can take a chance and try to find out how to tie a bow from a plastic bag. It will be very original and interesting. Decorations in the form of roses are popular. This will require a little more assiduity and additional tools, but it's worth it. You can tie a few bows-roses. This will give uniqueness to the gift and romanticism, especially if the flowers are made by a man with his own hands for a beloved woman.

As practice shows, decorating gifts clearly has something. From a variety of ornaments, the eyes just run, but it's most pleasant to make them yourself. Let's look at how to tie a classic type bow. To do this, you need a workpiece (as in a ball) of 8 turns, we add it and cut it in the corners. After that, we add the tape again, but change the axis so that the corners are in the center, and tie it with tape. Clutching the product in your hand, slowly unfold all the elements. The bow is ready!
