I recently bought a bow maker at AC Moore. It has great instructions and is really easy to use with great results! It only cost 10.00 but I got a coupon out of my local newspaper for 50% off!

If you don't have an AC Moore near you try Michaels Craft store or maybe any place like it might carry it. Good luck.
