Abstract

A longitudinally extending decorative flexible ribbon having opposite side edges and a central longitudinal axis is provided with a plurality of cutouts within opposite side edges of the ribbon at longitudinally spaced positions forming narrow necks joining uncut portions of the ribbon, intermediate of the cutouts. A longitudinally extending drawstring fixed at one end 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 encircles each neck and the drawstring at each longitudinally spaced position such that the drawstring runs freely through the retainers. The cutouts extend laterally from said opposed side edges beyond the longitudinal axis of the ribbon to create an asymmetrical assembly with the necks at adjacent longitudinally spaced positions being to opposite sides of the longitudinal axis ensuring fanning out of loops upon pulling on the drawstring and causing the retainers to move into a closely packed stack array to create a decorative bow.
