Decorate Your Own Christmas Ornaments with Poinsettia Wired Ribbon

Making Your Ornaments Fancier

Here's an Easy Way to Dress Up Simple Ornaments Using Wired Ribbon

Though this project doesn't make use of the wired part of the ribbon, the beautiful dimensional designs available on wired ribbons make them a good craft supply for many different projects.

Poinsetta Wired Ribbon Materials

• Wired Ribbon with your choice of holiday design
• Glass Christmas tree ornament large enough for the design
• Scissors
• Spray Adhesive
• Tweezers
• Optional: Thin coordinating ribbon to tie atop the ornament
• Optional: if you have a Xyron Adhesive Machine, use it instead of the spray adhesive. It will make your work much easier and less messy!




Assembling the Ornament

Cut out the portion of the ribbon which you want to use on the ornament.





Follow spray adhesive label precautions and use in a well-ventilated area (preferably outside) and cover a large work surface to protect against overspray. You don't want to glue your pet to the sidewalk!





Apply adhesive to the wrong side of the cutout design.





Use tweezers to pick up the design by the very edge.





Position the design on your ornament and press down in the center and work out ot the edges until it lays completely flat against the ornament.





Tie the coordinating ribbon around the ornament top. A dab of tacky glue will help hold it in place.

Tip: Ribbon designs change frequently. When you see one you like, stock up!
