Spring has arrived, and with it, a fresh new look for FEAST’s storefront! If you've ever driven by our shop and wondered how in the world we pull off these seasonal arbor displays, you're in for a treat. Our customers always ask, What’s next? Well, this spring, we went BIG.
We’re pulling back the curtain to show you exactly how we built this HUGE pink bow from scratch, so you can try it too!

The Vision: A Bold Spring Statement
Spring is all about renewal—longer days, warmer weather, and a reason to refresh our spaces. This year, we wanted to go dramatic and playful, and what says statement piece better than a massive pink bow?
We envisioned something oversized, with just the right amount of structure, movement, and texture to make people stop in their tracks.
Step-by-Step: How We Built Our Oversized Bow
Step 1: Creating the Frame (Chicken Wire & Structure)
To start, we built the bow’s skeleton using chicken wire and galvanized steel wire. The goal was to keep it lightweight yet sturdy.



We constructed the bow in two separate pieces, later connecting them at the center with zip ties for easier handling.

Step 2: Adding Fabric & the Flowing Ribbons
Once the structure was solid, we wrapped the bow with a canvas drop cloth painted pink, smoothing out the edges to create a seamless look.


The ribbon tails needed a soft yet structured feel, so we glued 14-Gauge Galvanized Steel Wire into the edges of additional canvas strips. This allowed us to create flowy, natural-looking ribbon pieces that would hold their shape beautifully.


Step 3: Strengthening the Bow (Foam & Spray Foam Tricks)
To add durability and maintain shape, we incorporated rigid foam board down the middle of the bow. Then, we filled the bottom half of the interior with big gaps spray foam—a trick to help hold everything together while hiding the chicken wire.


How You Can Recreate This Look at Home
Thinking about creating your own oversized decor piece? Here are our top tips:
✅ Work with what you’ve got – Make sure your proportions fit your space. Bigger is great, but balance is key!
✅ Use lightweight materials – Chicken wire, foam board, and fabric make for a bold look without the bulk.
✅ Get creative with structure – Hidden supports (like plywood or rigid foam) can help keep everything secure.
✅ Mix in real & faux – Faux florals are your best friend, but placement and layering make all the difference.
✅ Think outside the box – A little galvanized wire can go a long way in adding movement and shape.
The Final Look
And just like that, our spring arbor was complete!

This oversized pink bow has quickly become a customer favorite, and we can’t wait to see what inspiration it sparks for your own home decor!
