Krafted Keepsakes tales of the unexpected

DH is not a “crafty” man.  Creativity is not his thing but something he admires in others (which is nice).  However, on Saturday he came to my rescue. 

I needed to make 3 large florist bows to hang on our bookcases.  I had bought some ribbon and 3 hearts and I sat down to make said bows and the nightmare began.

Carefully following the instructions I began to wrap the ribbon – I was soon to realise that my ribbon wrap didn’t look like the one in the picture.  I undid my ribbon wrap and had another go – once again it was wrong.  Now, I am not one to give up easily but after several more attempts I was getting to the point where it would be going in the bin!

DH having watched the “performance” took over (absolutely unheard of).  He laid all the components out, found a video on YouTube and set to work.  I was blown away with the result and not only did he make one – he made all three!!

Judge the results for yourselves – I think he’s quite clever but I will master making these bows (I will not let it beat me!!)
