A DIY Vlog: A Ribbon Christmas Tree!

Here ya go, folks… it’s a vlog! Are you ready to make your own ribbon Christmas tree?!

I originally post this Dec. 9th of last year, but I think it’s worth bringing back from the dead checking it out again… DIY ribbon Christmas trees! Just in time to go ahead and make your own!

Or in my case – to get severely burned by my glue gun..

One day I was browsing that Pinterest and I saw a lovely mantle-scape featured in a magazine. Turns out  it belonged to my sweet friend Lisa Leonard…)

(You probably wear her jewelry – because it’s AWESOME.)

Aaanywho.

I fell pinky-puffy-heart in LOVE with those trees. And I figured it would be fairly easy… but I did not account for the pain.

I should know better.

Glue guns.

Satan’s gateway tool.

OK. The craft:

Hindsight: Use onger strips of ribbon… so the back seams won’t be so, uh… seamy.

Lastly, HAVE FUN and be careful with that glue gun!

  1. What does your necklace say? I, too fear the ‘hot glue guns of death’, as I affectionately refer to it. These crafts are FABULOUS, though. A job well done, my friend! Love your vlogs, dude! ;)
