Re: How Do You Tie a Bow....

That totally cracked me up! I do lots of crafty things and I always tie bows - I did my sister's wedding invites with bows and various other showers (I used to be ALWAYS the BM, never the Bride... LOL) I am sitting here trying to think of how to type it so it makes sense and I SO can't do it!! you have to move the hanging down parts and like shimmy the bow loose.... and then tighten it straight... does that make sense??

Re: How Do You Tie a Bow....

I think so! Your are just too funny! I'll have to keep practicing..

Definitely practice. When I tie bows, I make sure that both sides of the ribbon are even. Then I tie it in the middle and make sure it's straight (and not leaning over to one side) when I tie it.

I shimmy it straight. That is my technique.

Check the new Martha Stewart Weddings Magazine, it gives pictures on how to do it.

Sometimes it works when you tie it upside down.............
