An easy way to make ribbons with your own hands
The production of tapes has been gaining momentum recently: in view of the fact that they can be used not only as accessories for clothing and textiles, but also are the main material for the manufacture of Japanese ornaments - Kanzash. Such decorations can be executed not only from petals, but also in the form of bows. The most important advantage of their manufacture is simplicity and speed in the absence of great efforts. Bows made of ribbons can be made very simply, it is enough to have a tight cord, scissors, a lighter and, if necessary, a special template. If you mean a small bow-rubber band, then you can do without tooling. It should be noted that when using a cardboard template, it is better to cover it with adhesive tape and round the edges - this will make it easy to remove the bantagon stock.

Bows without a template
If there is not enough free time, then the ribbons can be made with the hands by the method of the eight. To do this, cut 2 pieces of 25-30 cm tape and each of them folded with a figure eight, trying to withstand the symmetry relative to the center. After that the received details are pasted one in another, creating an appearance of a bow. With this method, it is best to make multi-tiered ribbons from ribbons with your own hands - so they will be more magnificent and interesting, and if desired, you can add a beautiful middle piece. The only condition for such a technique is that each upper tier should be slightly smaller in diameter than the lower one. Here's another interesting technique that allows you to make miniature ribbons from the tapes yourself: winding on the plug (not only the usual, but also any other, even a long-toothed gouging machine). A thin satin ribbon wraps around the teeth the required number of times, after which it is pulled together in the center: a beautiful bow is ready!
