A bow making machine includes a magnetized anvil fixed to a base between four upwardly extending, channel-forming posts. The magnetized anvil holds a barrette in place within the channel defined by the posts, and loops of bow-forming ribbon material are placed over the barrette such that a central portion of the ribbon material is also situated between the posts. A ribbon/staple holder is placed over the central portion of the ribbon material to sandwich the barrette and the ribbon material between the ribbon/staple holder and the anvil. A staple is placed within the ribbon/staple holder, and then a punch assembly is pivoted into place to align a punch mechanism with the staple. The punch mechanism is depressed to force the ends of the staple into engagement with the anvil, which has the effect of binding the sandwiched central portion of the ribbon material and the underlying barrette together. The punch assembly may then be pivoted out of the way, the ribbon/staple holder withdrawn from between the posts, and the attached bow-forming ribbon material and barrette removed from the channel defined by the posts. The loops of bow-forming ribbon material may then be spread and shaped as desired.
