    I've decorated dozens of Christmas trees over the years - for my own home, for family and for charity events. Ever since I was young, I've always loved the magic and sparkle of the tree and I love the act of decorating one. Christmas tree ribbon is one of my favourite ways to make a tree look beautifully festive, and I've nailed down my technique over the years... but it's been a journey!
    Looking back, my first few Christmas tree designs weren't very good. My ribbon was wrapped so tightly around the tree, that it looked like it was being strangled! Over the years, I've learned some easy techniques to make ribbon look more natural on a tree. I'm excited to share some of my favourite ribbon methods in this step-by-step tutorial!
