Prefabricated bow form

A prefabricated bow form for a Pom bow comprising two opposed bow ribbons with tie ribbons therebetween, with first ends of the bow and tie ribbons bonded together, and with the bow ribbons bonded together at spaced bonded areas to define fold lines about which the bow ribbons will fold when a bow is formed by gathering the bonded areas adjacent the first ends of the ribbon. The fold lines include adjacent fold lines at right angles to the longitudinal edges of the bow ribbons that define therebetween generally central loop forming portions on the bow ribbons, and spaced angled fold lines between the central portions and both ends of the bow ribbons forming additional loop forming portions adjacent both ends of the bow ribbons.
