Ribbon and Christmas trees.  Sigh…the perfect combination.

.

Ideas for adding ribbon to your tree are endless.  Only one thing is a must, you must make sure that you have May Arts ribbon on your tree.

• Ribbon as garland around the tree is popular and so is using your ribbon as streamers. This year for my home tree, I decided to go with the green checked KB15 ribbon streaming down my tree.  This ribbon is 1.5 inches wide and the green solid check seemed a bit traditional yet, fun and whimsical at the same time.   Red beaded garlands are also streaming down the tree near the ribbon.  By using this ribbon I was able to hang the fun, bright, children’s ornaments and the more elegant crystal keepsake ornaments together on the same tree.  And none seemed out of place.

• Instead of tying bows on my tree, I attached ornaments with ribbon and then tied the bow.  Looking at the ornaments tied on with a bow makes me happy!

.

• People frequently have a large bow on the top of the tree, I opted for a smaller bow around the topper that we had - the best of both toppers!

.

• You of course can make ribbon ornaments.  Even hang the ornaments on your tree with ribbons instead of hooks.  Knot, loop, tie…my tree uses just about every way to hang an ornament with ribbon!  SJ string/metallic - The amazing metallic string will keep your ornaments attached to the tree and they won’t fall off!
