The perfect party is about more than just the food. It's about creating an atmosphere that makes your guests feel warm and comfortable and expressing your style through your decorating choices. Ribbon is a great way to achieve this because it's versatile and can be used in so many ways! We've rounded up five ribbon decoration ideas that will help you create elegance at any event: 

  1. The Pomander ball

This is a really easy DIY project that can be done in just a few minutes, with just a few simple materials. You will need: 

  • Ribbon (of course!) in any color of your choice
  • Pomander balls (you can find them at craft stores) and/or dried herbs from your garden

Here's how to put it together: Cut your ribbon into three equal pieces, then tie each piece around one end of the pomander ball so that there are two loose ends sticking out from each side. Then take one loose end and wrap it around itself about 20 times until you reach where you started tying on the other end; secure this new loop with another piece of tape or glue gun. Repeat this step with all three loose ends until they're completely covered by multiple loops! 

  1. Decorated ribbon wreaths

Wreaths are a versatile decoration that can be used to decorate any room. You can add ribbon to your wreath and hang it on the wall, or use ribbon to make a bow on the front of the door. This will give you an elegant look in your home! 

  1. Ribbon garland with a bow

You'll need: 

  • You can use any color you like, and you can also mix colors in the same garland.
  • A pair of scissors or a knife (to cut the ribbon).
  • A hot glue gun and sticks (to attach the bow to the ribbon).

To make this decoration, follow these steps: 

  • Cut your beautiful decorative ribbons into pieces that are long enough to go around whatever object you want to decorate with them (a door or wall) but not too long--if they're too long, they'll get tangled! You may want to measure out how much length each piece needs before cutting so that none are shorter than others. 
  • If there's any excess at all after arranging all of them on their respective surfaces, trim it off by folding over both ends towards each other until they meet in the middle; then secure them together with hot glue.

  1. Ribbon-wrapped bottles and vases

  • Wrap the ribbon around the bottle or vase.
  • Use different colors and patterns to add visual interest.
  • Make sure the ribbon is secure, but not too tight--you want it to be secure enough so that it doesn't slip off, but loose enough for air circulation around your flowers as they're growing. If you want some extra security, use a glue gun to attach the ribbon to your vase or bottle (be careful not to burn yourself!).

  1. Small pomander balls placed inside larger ones for a pretty contrast

If you have a lot of leftover ribbon, this is a great way to use it up. You can either make small pomander balls or cut up pieces of fabric and tie them together with a piece of string. Then insert into the larger ones for a pretty contrast.
