Gather your supplies. Measure your ribbon. Hold the loop.

You'll need floral stem wire to hold the bow together at its center. Make sure to bend it in half so it looks like a U. You'll also need wire-edged ribbon. Get a spool and that way you can make the bow as big as you like. Pull about 18 inches (46 cm) of ribbon away from the spool. Hold onto the ribbon with the fingers of your left hand. Now that you've made a loop, transfer it to your left hand and hold it firmly in between your fingers.
