Really, lots of options to choose from!īecause are for the hotel doors for a soccer team, I went with numbers. You can put the school on them, their names, you can put Happy Halloween on them. You might want to have names or messages instead, depending on what you were making these for. Now with that done, the door decorations just need the team numbers. You don’t want to have those upside down. The only trick here is to make sure you don’t glue the ribbon on too low that it would interfere with the personalization.Īlso before committing to the placement of the ribbon, just check the orientation of any images on your ribbon. You do want to use enough glue so that the ribbon will stay firmly on there. To attach the ribbon to the pumpkin (or whatever other wooden shape you are using), take your little ribbon bundle and put some hot glue on the back of it and then smash it onto the shape. If it doesn’t work, just take the pipe cleaner off and do it again, it’s no big deal so don’t stress this part, That’s really all you do: You just pinch it in the middle and wrap the pipe cleaner around it and secure it by twisting it on the backside. Then adjust the ribbons by twisting them if they aren’t facing the right way after the pinch.
All the ribbon I used here is from Michael’s and was on holiday discount, so another check for affordability!Īnyway, take your little stack of ribbons, pinch it together at the middle, and then wrap your pipe cleaner around it to hold it tougether in that center spot. I could have doubled up on the glitter, but truth be known, I didn’t do my ribbon math correctly at the store and ran out, and had to go back to the store for a foot of ribbon. I was using an odd number of ribbons here and normally that would make me a little OCD, but in this case, I think it worked out because the last one was really kind of skinny with lots of glitter so it just added a little pop of sparkle.

It would be cute but for this project, I wanted a really wide full bow. I went from the largest to the smallest width ribbon, and as you can see, I didn’t want them on top of each other although that would also work if you wanted to do it that way. Then make Xs with the other ribbons on top. Start with the widest ribbon and lay it down. Then I cut the pipe cleaners into 3 inch-is pieces. The different widths of ribbon give it that extra dimension and make for a more interesting bow.įor each ribbon, I cut about six inches, and trimmed the ends with an angled cut or triangle to prevent them from fraying. As long as the colors are similar, you can use whatever patterns you like. Next, I chose my ribbons with coordinating colors and different widths.
(Anyone need 6 footballs that say, “Welcome?” haha) I removed the staples and separated the shapes. Each of the three pumpkins and football were attached to a ribbon with staples.
The colors worked and it made it perfect for a soccer showcase, even though it didn’t have our team colors on it.Īs mentioned, this was a door hanger from The Dollar Tree that I disassembled. I wove in a soccer-themed ribbon into my fall-inspired pumpkin. Ribbon – you will want several different widths in complementary colors that match the team colors or holiday. Depending on the occasion you are decorating for, you will find a variety of shapes in any craft store or dollar store. I just found that the dollar store door hangers were exceptionally affordable and I didn’t have to paint them. Wooden shapes – These pumpkins were actually a door garland from Dollar Tree! They came with 4 shapes on a ribbon (3 pumpkins and one football that said, “welcome.”) Honestly though, any wooden shape or ornament would do. They come with 12 in a package, so I used two per pumpkin, but I probably could have only used one. These door decorations are super light and easy to use and remove with the Command Strips.
