| Instructions: You need to use double sided Designer Paper for this project to look right. That is the only kind we currently sell, but if you are trying to use up some old single-sided paper, this is not the ideal project. | ||||
|
|
Cut strips of Designer Paper: 4 of 8" x 1", 4 of 7" x 1", 4 of 6" x 1" and 1 of 4" x 1" You could make the strips narrower and of different lengths, but you want to keep the ratio the same. |

Fold over the edges of the strip and overlap them to make loops. Hold the ends together with SNAIL. | |||

Take the four loops created from the four identical length strips (these are the 8" strips) and overlap the pointed ends. Use a paper piercer and mat to punch a hole through all four pieces and secure them with a brad. | |||

Repeat the last two steps twice until you have three "petals". Overlap the ends of the smallest 4" strip to form a circle. This will be the center of the bow. | |||

Place dimensionals into the center of the largest group. These will be used to secure the next smallest. | |||
![]() |
Insert the next smaller group and push down in the middle to secure it to the dimensionals. | |||

Here is the bow with two of the levels and the center. I left off one of the levels. This allows you to see the pattern of the paper in the center of the bow. | |||
| Here is a sample of a bow with all three levels. | ||||
