"Ok once you have placed your ribbon through all of your holes you want to go back through and check and make sure that the front side of your ribbon is coming through on the front of your tank top. If you are just using a cording, you don't have to look for this but if you are using a double sided ribbon like I am, you just want to make sure that it didn't get twisted while you are passing it through your holes and then you want to take your ends and start pushing the fabric together and pulling the ends up. And what that's going to do is create this rooshing effect so it's going to bunch up. And you want to pull that as tight as you can get it, so it almost looks like a flower at the bottom of your tank top. And then you are going to take your two pieces of ribbon and you want to tie this in a really big bow and make a double know in the middle of your bow and pull as tight as you can, because you don't want that opening up. So I'm going to make a knot and then I'm going to tie a bow again just pull as tight as you can, without ripping that fabric. And I'm going to wrap around here and pull through, now I'm not because I'm going to do that right. Alright now I've got my bow and I've got the bottom of my bag secure and then I've got these great ribbons hanging down. So it's a really cute accessory and it also serves a purpose."
