A bow-forming decoration, comprising:
- a tubular netting having pliable, elongated strands of synthetic plastic material intersecting one another and forming an open-work pattern having open spaces, said strands being joined at their points of intersection,
- said tubular netting extending longitudinally along an axis from one axial end region of the netting to an opposite axial end region thereof, said netting having a circumferentially-complete tubular central region intermediate said end regions and extending circumferentially completely about said axis,
- said strands having stationary end portions at said one axial end region that are gathered in a common bunch, and
- said strands having movable end portions at said opposite axial end region that are movable toward said common bunch and form a decorative bow.

A method of forming a decoration, comprising the steps of:
- forming a tubular netting of intersecting, pliable, elongated strands of synthetic plastic material in an open-work pattern having open areas, and joining the strands at their points of intersection, said tubular netting extending longitudinally along an axis from one axial end region of the netting to an opposite axial end region thereof, said netting having a circumferentially-complete tubular central region intermediate said end regions and extending circumferentially completely about said axis,
- gathering stationary end portions of strands located at said one axial end region in a common bunch, and
- moving movable end portions of strands located at said opposite axial end region toward said common bunch, and forming a decorative bow.
