Ribbon Loop Christmas Tree Craft
Wondering what to do with those Styrofoam cones? Make ribbon loop Christmas trees! They are so pretty for home decor during the holidays.
First, grab your materials: a Styrofoam cone, four patterns of gorgeous silk ribbons, scissors, a hot glue gun, and a decor star to top it all off! Now, let’s get started! Cut those beautiful ribbons into 2.5-inch pieces. Don’t worry if they’re not all perfect – we’re going for a charming, handmade look here!
Next, fire up that hot glue gun and attach the ends of each ribbon piece together, forming a loop. You’ll need a bunch of these loops, so get gluing! Once you’ve got your loops ready, start attaching them to the Styrofoam cone, beginning at the bottom and working your way up. Create six layers of these gorgeous ribbon loops, overlapping them slightly as you go. Finally, top your masterpiece off with that star, and voilà ! Your very own Styrofoam cone Christmas tree is ready to shine.
You can customize your trees with any color or pattern of silk ribbons! You can even add battery operated fairy lights to make it twinkle at night! You can also buy different size Styrofoam cones to make a whole forest of trees. Just adjust the length of the ribbons to adapt.
