Arrow

supplies needed

Using  52" of ribbon, make a loose “M” shape with the ribbon.

1

2

Hold each side with your hands to cinch ribbon to create loops.

3

Cross loops and put one through the opening under the crossed loops – just like the way you tie a shoelace.

4

Once one loop is through the opening, pull both loops to tighten knot in center.

5

Twist loops if needed to get them straight and even with each other. Then use your index finger to straighten knot.

Fold end of tail in half lengthwise and cut on an angle from the wired edge to the folded edge of the ribbon with sharp scissors.

6

Tie onto a giftbox.

For a festive look - attach a sparkly pin to the center of the bow.
