Description
This is a Christmas bow made to finish a wreath: two full, rounded loops gathered at a wrapped knot, with two long tails that fall well below them. It is woven in a red check, a pattern that says Christmas at a glance, and at 53cm long and 25cm wide it has the size to hold its own on a door wreath rather than disappearing into the greenery. The fabric is a blend of 59% polyester, 36% cotton and 5% viscose. It looks like matt woven cloth rather than shiny ribbon, and the whole bow weighs just 0.12KG.
A wreath is its natural home. Clip it to the base of a wreath on the front door, or to one hanging on a hallway or living room wall, and the tails trail down over the door or wall beneath. It suits a traditional, cottage-style Christmas especially well, at home among fresh or faux pine, berries and dried foliage, and the red check sits comfortably beside other red decorations around the house. Because it clips on rather than ties, it is easy to move from one wreath to another if you change your mind halfway through decorating.
On the back of the knot sits a clip, so it fixes to a wreath without wire or string. Inside is a polyester filling, and the loops are full and rounded, while the two tails are cut at an angle and hang at different lengths. Care is spot clean only, and the maker advises against drying or ironing it, so treat any mark on the spot rather than washing the whole bow. When the season ends, unclip it and pack it away with the rest of your decorations. For styling, set the knot at the base of the wreath, a little off centre if you like, and let the uneven tails fall freely for a relaxed, hand-tied look.

Frequently Asked
What is the bow made of?
It is woven from a blend of 59% polyester, 36% cotton and 5% viscose, with a 100% polyester filling inside, and it has the look of matt cloth rather than shiny ribbon.
How do I attach it to a wreath?
There is a clip on the back of the knot, so you can fix it straight onto a wreath or a bundle of greenery without wire or string, and unclip it again afterwards.
How big is the bow?
It is 53cm long and 25cm wide, with two long tails that hang well beneath the loops, which gives it enough presence for a wreath on a door.
How do I clean it?
Care is spot clean only. The maker also advises against drying or ironing it, so deal with any mark on the spot rather than washing the whole bow.
