how to make large christmas tree bows

One way to make large Christmas tree bows is to start with a large piece of ribbon, preferably around 5-6 feet long and at least 6 inches wide. Cut the ribbon into 3 equal strips and then fold each strip in half lengthwise, so that you have 3 strips of folded ribbon. Take one of the folded strips and lay it flat on a table, with the folded edge facing you. Now take the second strip and lay it on top of the first strip, but at an angle so that the two strips overlap slightly.
