With Christmas almost here, decorating is at the top of most peoples lists.
I have received loads of questions on how I do it and I thought this week it being Thanksgiving and the first thing people do after Turkey day is put up the TREE…
it would be the PERFECT time 🙂
First…this type of ribbon technique requires A LOT of ribbon so be sure and buy plenty.
Step #1…Cut a VERY long ribbon
Step #2… Leave a long tail on the right and the left … Loop the ribbon in 3 parts
(side note – I have looped 2-5 loops as well, All depending on the look you are after)
Step #3…Wire the bottom of the loops making sure they are securely attached
Step #4…I then cut the very tip of each of the ribbon tails for a pretty finish
Step #5….Place the ribbon in the tree
I like to use wired ribbon, that way I can shape the ribbon in the tree and give it lots of character.
I place several ribbon bundles in pockets all over the tree.
After the ribbon is in place,
I then add all the fun Christmas tree elements to create that magical touch!
At times, I like adding other ribbon that I wrap around the entire tree or I attach shorter ribbon pieces to a hanging ornaments
It’s as easy as that 🙂 Hope this simple tip helps with your Holiday decorating!
Hope you all have a Wonderful Thanksgiving
and Merry Christmas!!!
and Merry Christmas!!!
Ribbon always seems to be my nemesis during the holiday. I think I can do this though! Thanks for the tips!
