Top Tipper of the Week
Yippee! I'm the TOP TIPPER OF THE WEEK!!! I thought my "bow apparatus" could be worth mentioning at Top Tip Tuesday and it was :) I am sooooo pleased and very proud to grab my new badge :)
Congratulations on being the "Top Tipper". I made one back when you first made your tutorial, but I think I lost it, so this is a great reminder for me; especially to make more than one size. I really don't use bows enough, even though I like them; just because they are a pain to make.
dj, it takes less than a minute now, but before when I tried and tried and blah... Now I know there is somekind of plastic bow maker, but hehe, those cardboard trousers didn't cost a penny and I can honestly say that I like making bows now :)
One tip: I never cut the ribbon until the bow is made. Makes it easier and "never waste a piece of ribbon". Heheh, never say never :P

ReplyDeleteI started making bows this way, too, but I usually use a fork :-) you can also make tiny bows then...
Ulina, I just had to add your fork tip on the original bow post. Thank you dear! :)
