Make It Something Special.

We've all done it. We peel the sticky stuff off the back and slap it on a present at the last minute. Guilty. Before you get completely complacent with that option, consider another.

Transform that plain ole bow into something more special. Here's a step-by-step:

1. Take your regular gift bow and get ready to snip snip!
2. Start by taking your scissors and cutting out all the loops. I suggest that you cut just inside of the curve of the loop so it keeps is shape and curls inward.
3. Make sure to cut all of the loops and push all of the curls out of the way.
   
4. Once you have all of the loops cut, do the same to your second bow.
5. Place your second bow inside the fist and fluff!

This is great way to use up those gift bows and make them a little more special. You can even take 4 or more to make a large pom to go on a larger gift to make it stand out from the others.

MERRY CHRISTMAS!
