6 Amazing things you can do with Christmas Ribbon.

6 Ideas to spruce up your home with a Christmas ribbon.

Christmas Tree

1. The tree, of course !!! Most people love putting Christmas ribbon in their tree, but don’t know exactly how to do it. I have found the easiest way is to create a couple of loops and leave a long tails of ribbon. wire that together and shove it deep into your tree, trailing the ribbons down your branches, easy and sophisticated. I find lots of fun ribbons at Amazon , decorators Wearhouse and a local store Coming home.

Presents

2. I love matching ribbons on presents that match the tree ribbon. It just makes your home seem more curated and bottom line. It’s the easiest way to upscale your tree. To make it look a little more designer. Here a fun way to tie a bow on a small gift

Wrapping frames in gallery wall

3. A fun idea that I’ve done before is to wrap my gallery wall photos with ribbon. I actually took the big picture off the wall, taped the ribbon to the back and then taped on a premade bowtie in the corner. It looks so charming.

Ribbon bundles on wreaths

4. Christmas ribbons can make any wreath or flower arrangement, a little more special I love using ribbons without wires to trail down the door in a pretty wreath. Ribbon bundles should have 5 to 6 different colors textures and sizes of ribbon to look full and lush. Or little tiny tied ribbons tucked into a floral arrangements is always a nice touch of color.

Ornament ties

5. Sometimes décor or ornaments will come with ribbons attached like these bell ornaments from Amazon, do not feel bad about cutting off the ugly ribbon and adding ribbon that matches your décor. It’s an easy way to upscale your ornaments and make all your décor match seamlessly together. You can also dye your own ribbon check this out

Unexpected places for swanky ribbon

6. I was stopped in my tracks with an Instagram photo from @houseandparties where Rebecca used huge 4 inch satin Christmas ribbon in swanky swoops mixed in her garland. I wanted to recreate this look so I took out the wire from some 4 inch satin Christmas ribbon I had and created a huge swanky bow like her on my bedroom garland. Love this fun madmen look! don’t be afraid to try something out of the box, that’s what makes decorating so much fun and so you!
