To make a Ribbon Loop Topiary
Tree:
1.
Cut ribbons into 4-1/2” lengths.
2. Fold a ribbon in half and starting at the
bottom of cone, pin the ribbon loop in place. Repeat, adding a row of folded
ribbons around the bottom of the cone. If needed, add a dab of glue to help hold
the ribbon loops in place.
3.
Pin on a second row, slightly overlapping the first row, and staggering the
ribbons. Repeat, adding additional rows of ribbon loops till the cone is
covered.
4.
Glue a 1/4” gold ribbon around the top of the cone to hide the raw edges.
5.
If you would like a glittered tree topper, brush Mod Podge onto the ornament and
sprinkle with glitter. Let dry. Poke a small hole into the top of the cone with
scissors. Insert and glue the ball to the top of the cone.
