So the first step in decorating an elegant Christmas tree is to place the ribbon on before anything else. I picked out three different ribbons; a dark grey velvet, a gray sheer ribbon and a white sheer ribbon.
I’ve done a ton of research on the best ribbon size and type to use when decorating a tree. And most say for ribbon width, to use ribbon between 2″ and 4″ wide – I only used 2.5″ ribbon on my tree.
When looking at the tree ribbon, it might appear like it’s a continuous chain woven throughout the tree. But it’s actually pieces of ribbon cut into strands!
There’s no such thing as too many Christmas tree lights right? So I bought some new clip-on candle lights. Love the extra twinkle they give the tree!
