What You Will Need

  • Gifts (to wrap)
  • Rolling tool tote (to hold gifts)
  • Brown paper
  • Silver duct tape
  • Wire
  • Scissors
  • Bowdabra Bow Maker
  • Wood trim

Instructions

  • Create a duct tape ribbon by cutting an 8–10 foot length of duct tape and placing it down with the sticky side up. Cut another equal length of duct tape and place it on top of the first so that the sticky sides meet together.
  • Use scissors to cut off any sticky edges along both sides of the long duct tape piece.
  • Using the Bowdabra (or your hands), fold the duct tape ribbon over and over again and use a piece of wire to secure it together in the center. Fluff out the loops so your bow looks full and beautiful.
  • Wrap the gifts in brown paper.
  • Make a gift tag by cutting off a piece of the wood trim, drilling a hole into one end, and using a Sharpie to write the names on it.
  • Wrap duct tape around the package, tape on the bow, and tie the gift tag to complete the look.
