Make a small loop at the beginning of the ribbon and pinch it together in the back.
Then twist the ribbon in the back making sure the right side (shiny or printed) is showing, and make a loop.
Keep holding and pinching the small loop and the end of the longer loop in your left hand.
Twist the ribbon again and make a loop on the left side of the small loop just like the one on the right.
Continue making loops on the right and then the left until you have six loops. Three on the right side and three on the left side.
Next, bring some ribbon down the middle for tails and fold it before bringing it up with all the other loops in the center.
Now you can cut the ribbon from the spool.
Thread a piece of wire through the small loop encasing all the loops and the end of the ribbon in the back. Twist the ribbon tightly.
Cut the folded ribbon below on an angle to form two tails.
Play around with the loops until you get the look that you like.
Tie the bow onto a wreath, tree, or a wrapped gift, and enjoy.
