Big bows are one of the top trends for festive styling this year and learning how to make a mantle bow is an easy way to add them to your Christmas decor.
Ribbons and bows are every this year from Christmas tree ribbon ideas to bows tied around wreaths, front doors and even cocktail glasses. You can buy large fabric bows at places like John Lewis & Partners, M&S and Anthropologie, but if you have time for some Christmas crafting, why not make your own? Interiors stylist Marie Nichols, who created the bows here, explains how to cut and sew your own.
