Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)

This review is from: Creative Bows Made Easy: Perfect Bows for All Your Crafts and Giftwrap (Paperback)

I love gift-wrapping. Creating a beautiful package is both fun for me & a pleasure for the recipient. This is a clear, concise guide to creating bows, mostly from fabric ribbon, although it does discuss a few alternative materials. I would have preferred more unusual types of bows. Almost all of this type of book show the loop bows of various types & the tailored, but there are some new ones in here, such as the floral pick, the gathered rose, the pinwheel, and the lovely poinsettia.
