Do this to all of your short strips.

Take your curls of paper, dab a dot of hot glue on the tip, and start gluing them at a centralized point on the ribbon.

Do a bottom row, and then layer them for a second row.  The final step is to cut a few shorter strips (about 2″ long) and create smaller curls for the center of the bow.

Add a good coat of Mod Podge to your paper bows to protect them.  I used Matte Mod Podge on the Purple and White bows, and then experimented with the Gloss Mod Podge for the pink, sprinkling on clear glitter before it dried.
