Answer to Question 1

A decorator's bow is a bow that includes a series of ribbon loops of varying lengths held
together with wire. A pinch bow uses a continuous length of ribbon, also held together
by wire.

Answer to Question 2

The single-faced ribbon has a shiny side and a dull side. The double-faced ribbon is the
same texture on both sides. You would use a double-faced ribbon in cases where both
sides of the ribbon will show.
