Christmas Ribbon Bow Trick

By Diane Henkler

Have you ever made a ribbon bow to use to decorate your house for Christmas? If it was not wired ribbon or velvet ribbon, did the loops flop down when you envisioned them staying upright and perky?

Well if this has happened to you, I am sharing a ribbon bow trick. It is really easy.  I am going to show you just how easy.

How-to-tie-a-ribbon bow-using-non-wired-ribbon-so-it-looks-full

This Christmas, I decided I am going to do more of the enjoying part and less of the pressured, stressed and frazzled part. :-)

One way I am doing this is putting the holiday decorating focus on a few parts of my house instead of decking the halls from top to bottom.

Keeping it simple will give me more time to enjoy all the season has to offer. Like watching Christmas movies, baking, strolling through pretty shops and maybe even taking a nap while listening to my favorite Christmas tunes as the sun sets and the Christmas tree begins to take on a magical glow.  This to me is pure bliss!!!!  I want it to last.

When we moved I gave away quite a bit of holiday decor and only kept a few bins of mostly ornaments and tree lights.  I found I have been liking the look of keeping things simple and as natural as possible.

Velvet ribbon bow making trick

I posted about the mantel in my living room earlier this week.  Yesterday I hung a fresh cedar wreath on the mirror across from it.

Three-Cedars-Wreath

The wreath is from Lynch Creek Farm and is a beauty. It also smells wonderful.

The photo above is from the Lynch Creek Farm website and shows the ribbon bow that it comes with. It is pretty and well made, but you know me, I like putting my own style on everything.

I removed the bow and added one I made using wide red velvet ribbon I bought recently at HomeGoods.  I love the velvet ribbon, but not the fact that it is not “wired-ribbon”. When making bows, wired ribbon is the way to go since it creates perfect full loops that stay in place. When ribbon doesn’t have wire, it makes limp bows.

I really wanted the look and texture of the red velvet for the room so I had to do a little DIY’ing on the ribbon. I made the bow as I usually do. You can find out how I make them in this post:  How to Make a Ribbon Bow. 

I hung the wreath using ribbon like I showed how to do in this post: How to Hang a Wreath with Ribbon

How to Give Fullness to a Limp Ribbon Bow

Sorry I don’t have a “before” photo to show you how the loops hung lifeless before I added some DIY fullness to them. If you ever made a bow with soft, non-wired ribbon, you know that the loops simply hang and don’t look very festive.

Here is the easy fix.

supplies needed:

  • White glue or fabric stiffener
  • Paint brush
  • Water
  • Plastic Grocery Bags
  1. Mix a tablespoon of water into 6 tablespoons of white glue. Mix it well and then brush it onto the inside of the bow’s loops. Make sure to saturate the inside of the loops. It will dry clear.

How-to-give-a-limp-ribbon-bow-fullness

2. Stuff the loops with bunched up plastic produce bags.  Tie the bow onto the ribbon that the wreath is hung on and let the glue dry overnight.

3. When glue is dry, remove bags and loops will stand on their own. The bags will not stick to the glue and will be easy to remove.

Much better. :-)

    I would probably hang it over the mantle. I have double doors on the front of the house and use 2 matching wreaths there. This would be lovely inside even if it doesn’t last as long it will be beautiful. I follow you and Lynch Creek Farm on instagram as @maryjgardner.

    As always, your posts are inspirational. I love holiday decorations and activities but would like to find time to take it easier this year and enjoy the more relaxing aspects of the holidays, as you mentioned. We bought a tree and put lights on it, but I am in no hurry to get the ornaments on – I’m just enjoying taking a nap on the couch and looking at the lights.
    As for the beautiful wreath, I would definitely hang it indoors in the family room to enjoy the fragrance.

    Since my husband is allergic to cedar we have switched to pre-lit Christmas trees but I grew up with the tradition of cutting down our family tree together, using trimmed branches to decorate the doors. I would hang this beautiful wreath on our gazebo door – we just built the gazebo this summer, and everyone enjoys being out there, especially with 80 degree Texas weather.

    We just moved into our home in April. Behind our sectional in the great room on a wall all alone, is a beautiful old mirror. Currently hanging on mirror I have a small boxwood wreath hanging from ribbon. I would LOVE to hang a fresh cedar wreath on it! The room is open and airy with lots of windows to a pasture. The aroma would be perfect in that setting! My tree is decorated with red and white…so I could even hang it with a red velvet ribbon like you did!

    How funny. I just removed the scrunched up paper that have lived inside my wreath’s limp bow loops for the past few years and finally… my loops are no longer limp! I’ll have to try this (much quicker!) method moving forward!! I’m guessing that being across the pond, I’m sadly unable to enter the Giveaway, but that wreath does look mighty fine! Good Luck everyone and thank you as always Diane for your wonderful tips and gorgeous ideas. Sue x

    When I win this beautiful wreath I will hang it in our foyer. I will switch out the ribbon to a plaid so it will coordinate with the rest of our home.
    Thanks for the give a way!

    I would hang this beautiful wreath on our patio. We love to sit out on cool days with the fire pit lit, and would love to have this wreath to look at while we sip our coffee!

    I have ordered from Lynch Creek Farm for several years for family, but never myself. I would love to have the wreath to hang above the fireplace in our outdoor kitchen. I am following you both on Instagram.

    Currently I have a burgundy-colored paneless window frame hanging above my mantel with a grapevine wreath in front of it. The fresh wreath would look great in place of that grapevine wreath and make the house smell wonderful! Always enjoy your posts and practical ideas!

    I would love to hang that beautiful wreath on my front door. It won’t be outside, but next to a full-view storm door that will keep it nice and cool in Ohio. I love the smell it would give to company coming to my house for the holidays.

    I’m already a follower of yours on instagram. I will now be following Lynch Creek Farm!

    I’d definitely put it on our pretty dark gray front door’s exterior. It currently has a verrrrry old faux evergreen wreath on it that truly needs to be replaced :-)

    LOVE that trick to make limp ribbon bows stiff with glue! Genius!

    I have an old house that has a little niche in the living room wall. I always put my little ceramic nativity set in the niche for Christmas and I love to hand a wreath on the wall next to it!

    I have been using a vintage tinsel tree lately and having the live tree out on the front porch so I can have a big tree without the mess. so, I really need that wonderful evergreen fragrance in the house

    I followed you on Instagram : ) and Lynch Creek Farm also!

    Definitely would love to hang it on the front door, but it may have to be on the inside. Full sun on the outside, Florida heat and the winter angle of the sun would probably fry the wreath in no time. The smell on the inside would be so nice too. Thanks for the giveaway opportunity!

    I’ll hang it on the door into the house from the garage because that’s the door we use every day. It would be so nice to see it welcoming us home and I’m sure the scent of the cedar would be a bonus.

    I think I would hang it on the hallway back door leading outside, I think it would be nice to leave,looking at a pretty wreath on a white door, I am not sure what color ribbon, I like to use ribbon that is red but with some green, I usually leave my wreaths up for Valentines day and St Patrick day, I am not sure a live wreath would last that long, but my hallway is cool.

    Love anything cedar. Reminds me of when I was a kid and our family would stroll through the woods in Texas and cut down a cedar tree for Christmas. I would hang the wreath in my living room so it would fill the air with the smell of fresh cedar. Enjoy your holidays.

    Diane, I love your tips. they are always so practical & down to earth. I am going to try to follow your example this year & keep it simple, both in décor & in activity. It’s only 4 weeks with limited time (given a full time job plus 3 hours worth of daily commuting), so simple is better. Thanks.
