A longitudinally extending decorative flexible ribbon (12) having opposite side edges (41,42) and a central longitudinal axis (21) is provided with a plurality of cutouts (24,26) within opposite side edges of the ribbon at longitudinally spaced positions forming narrow necks (28) joining uncut portions of the ribbon, intermediate of the cutouts. A longitudinally extending drawstring (18) fixed at one end (38) to an end of the longitudinally extending decorative flexible ribbon extends along the ribbon and is positioned in alignment with said neck at each longitudinally spaced position. A retainer (32) encircles each neck (28) and the drawstring (18) at each longitudinally spaced position such that the drawstring runs freely through the retainers. The cutouts (24,26) extend laterally from said opposed side edges beyond the longitudinal axis (21) of the ribbon to create an asymmetrical assembly with the necks (28) at adjacent longitudinally spaced positions being to opposite sides of the longitudinal axis (21) ensuring fanning out of loops upon pulling on the drawstring (18) and causing the retainers (32) to move into a closely packed stack array to create a decorative bow (50). <IMAGE> |
