Decorate Christmas Tree With Wired Ribbon

Top your christmas tree with an elegant ribbon tree topper that s easy to make yourself.

Decorate christmas tree with wired ribbon. Toni added mesh ribbon to her christmas tree in a simple diagonal wrapped pattern. Leave the ends extra long for a more dramatic tree topper. Fluff the mesh in the center of each section so it fans out.

As well as being secured it will give the ribbon a puffed look rather than having the ribbon be a block of colour around the tree. I absolutely love the holidays and your christmas tree is always the perfect way to help get you in the holiday spirit. Or if you have a real tree ornament hooks or small cuts of wire can be used to secure the ribbon.

Simply tie a big bow in your favorite wire edged ribbon then by threading green florist s wire through the back side of the bow s knot secure the bow to the top branch. In order to add every ribbon bundle to the christmas tree you can place it far down of the branches and then cover one of the wire branches to keep it secure. A rule of thumb is at least 9 feet of ribbon per foot of tree so a 7 foot christmas tree will need 63 feet of garland.

Attach it to the branches with floral wire then be sure and trim off the extra wire and press it flat against the limb so no one gets hurt. There s no need to go out and buy an expensive tree topper. On the other hand if you have a real tree in your home you can use some wired christmas tree ribbon to secure it.

Spread the ribbon out and tucked its ends to your tree casually. Depending on the size and shape of the tree you may need more ribbon for a fuller rich look. Hang large ornaments then ribbons and then smaller ornaments this way you can figure out if smaller ones are necessary or you can skip them.

About every 12 push the ribbon into the tree. Your ribbon should be an addition to the existing decor to highlight it which means that you should first hang all your christmas ornaments and only then add ribbons. In this video i am going to show you.
