Two-Tone Ribbon Bow - finished pale yellow and orange bow You can easily make your own two-tone bow out of pieces of ribbon. I like this one because it's glittery, fluffy, and super easy to put together.

Total Time: 20 minutes

Yield: 1 bow

Supplies:

ribbon in 2 colours
1 credit card or playing card
scissors
hot glue gun with glue

Steps:

Wrap ribbon around your card several times. I went around 6 times.

Cut the ribbon on both sides of the edge of the card.

Now you have 12 strips of ribbon, all the same size.

Repeat with the other colour ribbon.

Place a tiny dot of hot glue on the top right of a piece of ribbon, then fold the other end back and around and secure on top of the glue.

Glue several ribbon loops together at the corners, going around in a circle.

Now glue in a smaller ring of ribbons inside using the other colour.

Repeat, alternating colours and using smaller rings.
