Instructions:

1. Cut a piece of 24" Bowdabra Bow Wire and fold it in half and place it into the Mini Bowdabra.
2. Use the gold metallic ribbon and fold it down into the Mini Bowdabra in an accordion style.     
3. Scrunch down with the Mini Bowdabra Wand.
4. Take the ends of the Bowdabra Wire and place them through the loop that was formed when you folded the Bowdabra Wire in half.
5. Pull the wire tightly and tie it around two candy canes.

7. Attach the scrunch bow to the other bow and candy cane.
8. Glue a pom-pom for the cat's nose, 2 googly eyes, and then wrap a pipe cleaner around the base of the candy canes for the cat's tail.
