Start wrapping the bouquet handle with the ribbon.  While wrapping the bouquet handle with a ribbon, keep on adding glue around the bouquet handle.

Step 18

Add some hot glue at the edge of each fabric strip, and then join both ends of the strip.

Step 19

While the hot glue is still sticky, pinch the edge with your fingers to form a single bow loop.(Let the glue cool a little first or it might burn your fingers.).

Step 20

Attach each end of the fabric strip bow  around the bouquet base with hot glue.

Step 21

Apply some hot glue around the base of the fabric strip bows, and then wrap the ribbon around to cover the bow tips.
