Learn how to tie blast off bows for all your Easter decor! Make four super cute bows with different combinations of Easter ribbons that you can use this Easter season. These Easter Ribbon Bows have three layers of loops so you can mix and match the wired ribbon to create the perfect Easter or Spring bow.

How To Make An Easter Bow

Let me show you how to mix a regular tail bow with a funky bow. These types are bows are perfect to use for any spring or Easter decor! Each bow is a 2-1-1 recipe. That just means how many loops of each layer of ribbon you will be using. Thought this time we are going to mix things up. We’re going to add an extra set of tails for fun. Then end with a bow tie style ribbon on top. Remember that whatever ribbon you pick for the bottom layer is what will dominate the bow. Making it the main focal point. Doesn’t that just sound AMAZING?!

I love using an EZ Bowmaker. It really helps when I’m making bows to act as an extra set of hands. It cuts down on making sure you are handling all of that fun ribbon correctly. This helps keep the right side of the ribbon out so you can see the beautiful pattern nice and bright. It also helps tremendously to keep the loops and tails from slipping out when you are layering different ribbons.

Let’s get started and make the perfect Easter bows using a variety of super cute easter ribbon!

Directions

• Start by finding cutting the styrofoam so it is nestled inside of the Green Frankenstein Bucket so that it sits nicely inside and glue down. I like to use both Gorilla Glue and Hot Glue to really secure it for both now and long term.
• Cut Black Garland Base into small sections and set your base, spreading for maximum coverage.
• Prep your picks by grabbing your Purple Green Orange Felt Ball Twig Sprays. Sseparating them into smaller picks. You can also twist the black chenille around your finger to create a fun effect. 
• Trim your Glitter Eye Ball Picks and add to the stryofoam. Be sure to space them for the best visual display.
• Cut and prep the White Black Chenille Curly Stems add some dimension to them by curling with your fingers to really give them life.
• Stem back and look at your your centerpiece. Are thier bald or blank spaces? Fluff you black garland to fill and use the wires in your products from Keleas.com to really get the pieces where you want them.
• Grab one of your Glitter Curly Velvet Ball Picks and trim the stem down to a couple of inches. Fluff out your pick, and then place it to the left of your bow, tucking it behind the bow to have it peek out from behind it.
