Welcome friends! I hear often that you love the tips I share, and today I want to share my favorite bow tying tip. I’ve shared this with quite a few beginning crafters, and it has always worked to help them tie beautiful bows. Let me share it with you!
Bow Tying Hack For Beginners Video
Watch along here for this quick and easy bow tying tip!
Bow Tying Hack Instructions
I’ll attempt to explain below how to tie bows using this trick, but it may be easier to watch along with the video.
First, begin with 8-10″ of twine (twine is recommended for beginners). Create a loop in each hand. Hold each loop between your thumb and index finger.
Cross the right loop behind the other loop.
Bring the loop that is now on the left side downward.
Push the left loop through the hole at the bottom.
‘Fidget’ with the bow and straighten it before pulling the loops to tighten it.
That’s it – pretty easy.
I hope this helps you!! If you love tips like this one, check out tons more card making tips and tricks here.

Anna,
I love your blog. I have followed you for years & have learned so much from you. Unfortunately, for some reason I am not getting your blog posts any more. The last one I got was on May 5th. In order for me to see your latest post I go to the May 5 post and scroll ahead to the newest post. I have filled out the subscription request twice since I then but nothing has changed. I’ve checked my spam and your posts are not going there. Do you have any suggestions or is there something you can do on your end to help me be able to follow you again?
Thanks for this post on bow tying. I have always had trouble tying good bows.
Thank you,
Maureen
