How To: Make a ribbon bow with the help of toothpicks

In this tutorial, we learn how to make a ribbon bow with the help of toothpicks. Start with a full twist on your ribbon, then place it behind the toothpick and hold it in place with another toothpick. Next, make another loop and then do a front loop with a half of a twist. Now, secure those in place with toothpicks and do three side loops with half twists. Secure them with toothpicks, then continue with larger loops made with half twists. When finished, hold the ribbon in the middle with your fingers, and remove the toothpicks. Having the toothpicks as aids will help you hold the ribbon in place while your hands are busy making the loops!
