Cut your twig to your chosen length and collect together your ribbon strips – we made ours 20cm.
Tie the ribbon strips around the twig and secure with a double knot. You can move them up and down on the twig, or twist them around to get the best placement.
Leave a small gap at the bottom to look like your Christmas tree trunk and leave a small gap at the top in case you want to add some twine or a star later on.
Once all your ribbon strips are attached and lined up, use scissors to carefully trim the ribbons into the shape of a Christmas tree.
You can either prop your ribbon tree up against something as a decoration or if you’d like to make it a hanging decoration, tie or glue a small loop of twine or string around the top of the twig.
You could even make a huge ribbon tree to hang on the wall!
