✂️ Paper Ribbon: Step-by-Step Guide with Photos
For this large DIY bow, colored construction paper is best, as it is sturdy yet can still be shaped well. For smaller gifts, you can of course also make the bow in a smaller version – simply cut the paper accordingly.
Tip: The more evenly you cut the paper strips, the more symmetrical your bow will be. For a secure hold, hot glue is recommended, especially with thicker layers of paper.
🧾 You will need:
- Colored paper (e.g. construction paper in A4 or A3)
- Scissors
- Hot glue gun
