How to Put a Bow on a Box
- 1). Wrap the ribbon around your box once and cut it. Tape the two loose ends together in the middle of the topside of your box with a piece of double-sided tape. Place the box in front of you so that the ribbon is running vertically.
- 2). Wrap another piece of ribbon around the box horizontally as you did before, starting where you taped the first ribbon ends together. Wrap around so that the ribbons cross over each other on the bottom and top of your box.
- 3). Cut the second piece of ribbon and tape the ends to the box in the same place that you taped the ends of the first piece of ribbon. You should now have your box wrapped around with two ribbons that cross each other on the top and bottom of your box.
- 4). Cut a 1-inch piece of tape and stick it to the bottom of your bow. Place your bow over the criss-crossed pieces of ribbon on the top of your box and gently press it down. For larger bows, consider adding two pieces of tape at the bottom for a stronger hold.
