"So if you're like me, you don't like buying Christmas Bows to put on presents so. My name is Robert Segundo and I'm going to teach you how to make one. What I've got here is I've just got a regular old piece of paper, this actually came with my construction paper that I'm using here to fold. What I'm going to do is I'm going to take this and right now what I'm going to do is I'm just going to fold this into, like so, sheet again like so, and again like so. Lets open this back up, going to fold this corner in the middle like so. I'm just going to do that with all four corners. There we go. Now we have a single white piece. What we're going to do is we're going to fold these corners into the center as well. There we go, there we go, and finally that one. Now what we're going to do is we're going to flip our piece of paper over, fold this corner back to here, this corner back in. Now this is it, these are going to be our last folds I promise. There we go, all four of them. So what we're going to do is we're going to flip this over, and now we're going to just go ahead and open this up for our little gift bow. And you might say well it's really nice what we did with that ugly piece of paper. What's even better is we've got a little design in here when we open this up so it kind of gives it just a little bit of color and flare. And really doesn't look like anything. It's pretty fun. There you go. There is your paper gift bow. Play around with it, have fun, and Enjoy!"
