One must browse a genuine website in order to purchase animal printed grosgrain ribbon online. The website must have a history of selling such products to customers you can contact and inquire. One must avoid unknown portals for purchasing animal printed grosgrain ribbons.

Let us understand the procedure for making an animal printed grosgrain bow. Cut a 1-inch wide strand of animal printed grosgrain ribbon along with 8 inches of a 26 gauge crafted wire. Complete one side of this ribbon by placing a shallow diagonal cut and sealing it with the help of a lighter to avoid raveling. Secondly, make a ring on one side of the animal printed grosgrain ribbon and bind it with craft wire. This will leave a long wire tail for continued wrapping. Then form the second loop on its opposite side. Then wrap the craft wire around it once more.

Follow this procedure several times with alternating sides and placing each loop off center to form a fan shape. Then, wrap the craft wire around its center a couple of times and cut off any excesses. Trim its tail even with a hot seal.
Cut 2 3/8 inch of animal printed grosgrain ribbon. Attach one of its ends to the ribbon bottom with glue. Finally, wrap the animal printed grosgrain ribbon around its center once to conceal the wire and fix the other end. Then, snip out any excess ribbon. Lastly, attach this bow to a headband or barrette to wear.
