You’ve finished wrapping the gift box, and now just need to tie one more pretty bow and it’s perfect. Pre-made bows are sold in stores, but if the gift box has a ribbon wrapped around the box and tied into a bow, it will be even better. Bow ties are easy, and once you know the basics, you can try more unique embellishments, such as criss-crossing or interwoven ribbons.

Wrap a ribbon across the top of the box. Let one end of the ribbon stick out from the side of the box about 10-20 cm to make the bow tail. Drill and cut the ribbon. [1]

  • Leave the ribbon sticking out of the box that’s too long rather than too short. If needed then you can easily cut it short.

Pull the ribbon down to the bottom of the box and loop up. Do not turn the box upside down, or the ribbon will deflect. Instead, you should lift the box and thread the ribbon at the bottom of the box. Set the box down after pulling the ribbon out into the other side. [2]

Drag the ribbon across the top of the box. Pull the ribbon to the center of the lid of the box, then tie the short end with the long end. Twist the ribbon so that the two ends of the ribbon rotate vertically. [3]

  • If the ribbon has left and right sides, you may have to twist it twice so that the right side faces out. [4]

Loop the ribbon to the bottom of the box and up over the lid. Pick up the box again. Pull the long end of the ribbon until it sticks out of the other side of the box. Put the box back down. [5]

  • Place your thumb on the twist of the ribbon to keep it in place while you wrap the ribbon around the box.

Adjust the bow and cut off the excess ribbon. Spend some time adjusting the bows and tails. If using a wired ribbon, you can stretch it. You can cut the top of the ribbon diagonally or in a V shape to style the bow. [7]

Thread the ribbon at the bottom of the box, diagonally across the top right corner. Take the tip of the ribbon still in the roll and thread it under the bottom of the box, diagonally across the top right corner towards the bottom left corner. [9]

  • Stop the thumb on the ribbon in the upper left corner so it doesn’t fall off.

Cut 4 ribbons to wrap the length of the box. You will need 4 ribbons long enough to wrap around the length of the box, plus another 5cm. [12]

  • For a more unique look, you can use 2 narrow ribbons and 2 wider ribbons. You can also use 2 contrasting colors.
  • Thick and/or wired ribbons are not a good choice. Use satin ribbon or bubble tail ribbon is best.

Arrange the first set of ribbons side by side on the table. Take 4 ribbons and arrange them on the table. Remember to line up the ribbons parallel and no more than 0.5 cm apart. [14]

Wrap the ribbons around the box and secure with double-sided tape. Glue the ribbons one at a time, don’t glue them all at once. Pull the ribbons tight around the box for a tight fit. The ends of the ribbon will overlap by about 2.5 cm. [15]

  • Remember to only glue the top ribbon to the bottom one, not the box.
  • You can also use circular double-sided tape (available at craft stores) instead of regular double-sided tape.

Glue the second set of ribbons just above the first set of ribbons. Glue a strip of double-sided tape on top of each short ribbon. Line up the ribbons just above the first long strand, making sure the ribbon ends are perpendicular to each other. [16]

  • This time too, you should glue the ribbons no more than 0.5 cm apart.

Turn the box over and knit the short ribbons with the first set of ribbons. Wrap short strands of ribbon around the top of the box. Knit the first ribbon up and down alternating with the set of ribbons below. Knit the next ribbon in the same way. Continue to knit for all 4 ribbons. [17]

Glue the ribbons to the bottom of the box. Flip the box over again. Glue a strip of double-sided tape to the end of each ribbon, then press the ribbons into the bottom of the box in turn. Remember to glue the ends of the ribbon to match each other. [18]

  • To make it more beautiful, you should knit short ribbons with long ribbons on both the bottom side of the box similar to the top.

    Decorate the top of the box if desired. The intertwined ribbons are part of the decoration of the box. If you still feel like something is missing, you can buy or tie a colored bow and stick it on the box. Instead of covering the work you just worked so hard to do, stick the bow to the side so you can still see the interlacing ribbon.

    • Advice

    • Wrap thin ribbon over thick ribbon for a nice look.
    • Satin or embossed ribbons are great for wrapping gifts, but if you want to keep the shape of your bows, you’ll need to use a stringed ribbon.
    • If the gift box wrapping has a solid color, choose a contrasting color ribbon to make it stand out (such as a red ribbon wrapped around a green gift box).
    • Choose a ribbon color that matches the wrapping paper. For example, the metallic gold ribbon goes with the red box and the silver white ribbon goes with the blue box.
    • If the wrapping paper has stripes or patterns, choose a ribbon that matches one of the colors of the pattern.
    • If the tip of the ribbon is very torn, you can keep it on the flame for a few seconds.
    • See How to Tie a Bow to learn more complex bow tie techniques!
    • If you like the style of a ribbon with a string but don’t like the string on it, you can cut the ribbon and pull it out like a straw.
    • Try using a patterned ribbon that contrasts with the box wrapping paper. For example, if the wrapping paper has polka dots, you can choose a striped ribbon.
    • In general, the larger the gift box, the wider the ribbon should be chosen; The smaller the box, the narrower the ribbon should be. [19]
    • Don’t be afraid to change and use big ribbon to wrap the small gift box to stand out. [20]

    Things you need

    • Gift box
    • Ribbon
    • Drag
    • Double-sided tape (for interlacing ribbon wrapping)

    You’ve finished wrapping the gift box, and now just need to tie one more pretty bow and it’s perfect. Pre-made bows are sold in stores, but if the gift box has a ribbon wrapped around the box and tied into a bow, it will be even better. Bow ties are easy, and once you know the basics, you can try more unique embellishments, such as criss-crossing or interwoven ribbons.
