It will soon be time for Christmas 2023 so if you need your tulle for your door - order your 10 metres from my shop! www.thewoolpatch.com/shop/c/p/Red-Dress-Netting-Tulle-for-Christmas-Door-Bows-x66005694.htm. Stuart
Oh wow!!!! This is wonderful news!!! Any chance you can send a pic to stuart@thewoolpatch.com would love to see it and share it on our ‘gallery’ on my live show this month. Wishing you a wonderful merry Christmas.
Uppie / downie, lefty / righty - very specific technical terms indeed. One has no doubt what they are. I wish more instructions were so specific. This bow kit is a really good idea. I am going to try doing a similar bow here, but I have a mind for tartan.
Lots of people have remarked the same Dorothy. I was like this all through my teaching days. Say it as is it, way easier to learn and understand! As for tartan......ooooooo, I would love to see a pic if you do! What a great idea. Stuart
Long Melford is going to look so festive with all the bows in place.........what a clever idea......and a brilliant tutorial Stuart. We were riveted, watching with our tea in bed this morning. Lefty righty.....up-y downey........it took me back to learning to tie my shoe laces all those years ago! Bless you for bringing us this little bit of early Christmas cheer............love to Long Melford. X
I think Melford will! Should look stunning....just need people to stat buying them now - otherwise I'll have a garage full of red netting hahah. Yes, who needs technical terminology hey haha! Hope you're doing all doing well! x
Thank you so much for sharing. I was going to order the bow this year, but decided to buy the material and make my own instead. I needed more so it was less expensive to buy the material and make them. I'm so thankful I found the video of the actual creator of the bow kit. Thank you for showing how to make it. You give great directions. You are an awesome instructor. 💜💜
Hey Bera! This is wonderful to hear! Thanks for your kind words....I think that's my 16 year teaching career playing a part there! Have fun making them - if you get a moment send us a picture of the finished result!
@@TheWoolpatch sorry for the late response but yes I’m making one this Christmas and you’ve been a big help. Wishing u a merry Christmas. It’s almost here 😀
haha Cheers! You know sometimes, it's just best saying it as normal as possible...don't know about you but when I hear veritcal or horizontal, my brain has to work a little bit harder haha
@@TheWoolpatch HI I've just subscribed to your channel ,I think you explain in detail for everyone to do there bows just like you. I'll be doing mine tomorrow, so wish me luck.I Just wanted to ask can you still use the door as normal .I was just thinking will it tare x
Hey Julie! Lovely comment to read! Thank you for taking the time to comment and let me know! Thanks for subscribing too! As for your door bow, good luck with making it. Yes, you sure can use your door as normal. Just remember you may have to postition your lefty righty bit higher or lower to avoid you locks or those chub locks. It won’t tear, it’s tough betting fabric. It can take a lot of rubbing and brushing against the floor. It fits in the hinge okay so you can close the door. It doesn’t affect the letter box too much either, the postie can squeeze it round and it just falls down and gets caught in the red netting at the back! Have fun 👍🏼👍🏼
Hi Stuart - love your red bow it looks great - I am going to send your video to a couple of friends to encourage them to zuszh up their front doors for Christmas. Your idea might start a trend 😉.
Lovely idea! The sharing of the video also helps me a lot too! I love the way you spelt zuszh, too....much better than my way, haha I spent ages trying to work out what letters to use haha.
Have fun with it. I found the hardest part was making the actual bow! Everything else was easy. I'm going to make another video on how to make the bow this week as I've searched on youtube and not found many good tutorials on how to do it. Stuart :)
I have this same one but I seen a much more expensive looking one on another door yesterday, I wonder where they got it, it was a nice dark burgundy velvety bow
Yeah, I did it in 2019, then all went south for 2020, so it's nice to have them back. (many will be reusing theres as net keeps easily in the garage) The village looked lovely with red bows on business doors and private folks house doors too. Melford is one long street, so driving through seeing bows on either side was quite charming with all the fair lights too.
Hi I love the look of door bows but how will the postman post letters? Im Not the brightest of people any ideas of still being able to access it please
Very good point Becky - I forgot to talk about that on the video. There is a bit of slack on the uppy downy, so my postie, just bends it to one side and access the letterbox. Especially if you have the bow in the top third, it just means the postie only has to move the uppy downy. I suppose it may be harder if you have a low down letter box as the uppy downy will be wider. But most mail will go through easily. It fits an a3 firm envelope he may be knocking on your door. The post then falls through the letterbox and just gets caught in the uppy downy on the other side.....and you don't have to bend down on to far to pick it up!.......oh just another thing.....be aware of the locks. New modern doors, have quite a few chubb style lock things. position your lefty righty's so it's not near. :). Stuart
A quick tutorial for everyone in the village who will be putting up their door bows in the coming weeks - I hope it helps. If you're not in the village and want to make one, I've put the requirements in the description box of the video. You can make it easy and do the actual bows however you like! Have fun!
Great video. Would love to order. I see metres in your website with two drop menus and 10 metres is needed to get this look. If getting 10 metres, I'm a bit confused as to should I put 10 in first drop menu or 1 in first and 0 in other? Thanks Also would you have this material available in white?
Hey Aisha! good question.....so use the first box only to choose your meterage. only use the right box if you need a little extra, for example 50cm, so you would go 10 in the first box and .5 in the second for 10.5 metres. If you just want the 10, then choose 10 in the first box! I only have red this year. I haven't got white, partly becuase, there are so many.....'white', 'silk white' 'ivory' so, stuck with Red. Just out of interest if I were to get white next year, would 'white' be best? I'm thinking the others may look a little 'dirty' if you get me. Stuart
@@TheWoolpatch Thank you so much. Hopefully I would be able to order soon. I like the red as well but surprisedly I do like white or other with like embellishments on them..I'm sort of a blingy type😀 And although the sound of white on a not so clean door, I wanted it but not plane out but I'm open & perhaps I could add to it. But a variety next year would be great but I'm so happy you have the red available as well. Happy Holidays to you & your family
haha very good question Siobhan, There is a lot of 'ease' on the uppy downy, so the postie can easily grab and pull the uppydowny with one hand, towards themselves and then with the other hand, pop all your cards through the letterbox! Stuart

This is the best door Christmas bow tutorial I’ve ever seen
I don't think I've ever felt so much joy in watching an instruction video. Thank you so much 🎀
Aww thank you so much! Appreciate the time you took in letting me know. Means a lot. Stuart
Love it... uppy, downy and rightly, lefty!! ❤ beautiful 😍

Just put my Grinch door bow on, using your fab instructions - looks amazing!!! Thank you again for sharing!! 🥰

It good you have those really long arms, Stuart! My tiny T-Rex arms would be having a bugger of a time doing my Lefty-Righty!

Very festive!
Absolutely love it thank a lot can u tell me how much tulle is required for one door pls
You’re very welcome!!! Yeah it’s all in the description. I recall it being 10metres?
I have this same one but I seen a much more expensive looking one on another door yesterday, I wonder where they got it, it was a nice dark burgundy velvety bow
If you google Christmas Netting door bows there are quite a few companies who make them to sell and use lots of colours and fancy material! :)
@@TheWoolpatch I had already bought the one in the video before I watched, mine looks the exact same but without the cable ties
@@TheWoolpatch thanks for the upload 😀 Merry Christmas 🎄🎁🎊
Hi
I live in the US how much is that in dollars? I would love to get one for my door. It looks so beautiful.
I sell the netting at £3 a metre, that in current exchange is about $4
Nice job Stuart! Looks awesome. Was this your idea for the village?

What’s that material called? Thank you
Love it by the way
Here in the uk it's called 'Dress Netting' mostly, but some call it Tulle. :)
Hi, I'm not local but absolutely love this! Could you please show us how to do the bows. Thank you :)
Hey Tara, aww thanks for your kind words. I'm sure I can do a quick little video! I'll see what I can do over the next week or so :). Stuart
@@TheWoolpatch thank you :) appreciate it!
Bow Video now out - hope it helps. This 'rosette' style is 2nd in the Tutorial. Good Luck
@@TheWoolpatch thank you so much! :) X
But how does mr. postie post my Christmas cards? 🤷🏻♀️
haha very good question Siobhan, There is a lot of 'ease' on the uppy downy, so the postie can easily grab and pull the uppydowny with one hand, towards themselves and then with the other hand, pop all your cards through the letterbox! Stuart
