easy burlap bow tutorials are so expensive at retail stores. I am so cheap that I couldn’t bring myself to pay $12.99 for one bow. Once, I saw one for $24.00!! That is ridiculous. So, instead I decided to figure out how to make some on my own. I made two for the wreaths on my front door for six dollars with ribbon left over. I bought one roll for $9.99 and used a 40% off coupon. Here is my tutorial for how to make a easy burlap bow tutorials.

Time: 20 – 30 Minutes

Materials:

Wired burlap ribbon (About 10 feet per bow)

Stapler

Scissors

Twine

Instructions:

Step One: Cut four 20” strips. Staple the ends together forming a circle for all four pieces. With the opening in the center, pinch the bow in a zig zag shape and secure it with twine. Trim the twine. Repeat to make four bows.

Step Two: Tie three of the bows together with twine. Lay the fourth bow on the top center and tie all four bows together with twine.

Step Three: Cut a nine inch strip and wrap it around the middle. Use twine to tie the ends together by feeding it through a small hole on each end (You can use your scissors to help make bigger holes if needed). Slightly fold the sides together to create a more narrow strip down the center of your bow.

Step Four: Cut a 24” strip. Fold it diagonally in the center as shown. Cinch the center together as shown. Secure the cinched center with twine and trim. Tie it to the back of the bow. Cut the ends diagonally for a finished look.

Here is the final product. You can use these easy burlap bow tutorials for wreaths, garland, or tree toppers. Use the same tutorial for other types of ribbon to decorate presents or even outdoor light fixtures for the holidays.
