HOW TO PUT RIBBON ON A CHRISTMAS TREE | 4 EASY RIBBON TUTORIALS
Hi friends! Welcome to my 2020 HOLIDAY SERIES.Today I am sharing 4 Ribbon Tutorials for your Christmas Tree This year.
Some additional helpful ribbon tips:
I always use wired ribbon with these specific techniques. Anytime I am trying to get ribbon to hold form, wired is the way to go.
I also don't like to use anything smaller than a 2.5 inch width. With the last technique shown (the bow technique), you could probably get away with a slimmer ribbon, but wider is easier to work with.
In terms of how much ribbon per tree, it does depend on the technique, size and width of the tree, etc, but a good rule to follow is 4 times the vertical length of your tree. I always say, if you aren't certain, buy more than you think you need. You can always use in around the house in other areas, like in your garlands, etc. It really ties the whole look together.
If you care for your ribbon properly, and purchase quality ribbon it can last over the years.
I hope that was a bit more helpful! Happy Decorating! I am sure your tree will turn out beautiful.
