I mean come on you can&#8217;t just throw up a tree and call it a day.

It&#8217;s called the criss-cross ribbon technique and I began doing this to my tree last year. Well, when I posted a picture on <span style=\"color: #008080;\"><a style=\"color: #008080;\" href=\"https:\/\/www.facebook.com\/permalink.php?story_fbid=10205466151881527&amp;id=1482607137\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Facebook<\/a> <\/span>of the tree decorated like this in 2014, everyone fell in love and many even tried it on their own.<\/span><br \/>\n<a href=\"https:\/\/www.facebook.com\/permalink.php?story_fbid=10205466151881527&amp;id=1482607137\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\"><img loading=\"lazy\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-2754 size-full\" src=\"http:\/\/toritoth.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/12\/2015-12-09_1434.png\" alt=\"cris-crossed ribbon\" width=\"530\" height=\"929\" \/><\/a><br \/>\n<span style=\"color: #000000;\">So before I show you how it&#8217;s done let me tell you what you will need. First off, when purchasing the ribbon being used you want to make sure you get the right amount and of course that all depends on the size of your tree, so for a 7 foot tree you need 10 pieces of 14 foot ribbon. Basically you need to double the length of the tree&#8217;s size to get the length of the ribbon. Ok, so you&#8217;ll need to have handy:<\/span><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><span style=\"color: #000000;\">Ribbon (something that isn&#8217;t flimsy)<\/span><\/li>\n<li><span style=\"color: #000000;\">Scissors<\/span><\/li>\n<li><span style=\"color: #000000;\">Wire<\/span><\/li>\n<li><span style=\"color: #000000;\">Measuring Tape<\/span><\/li>\n<li><span style=\"color: #000000;\">Stool or Ladder<\/span><\/li>\n<li><span style=\"color: #000000;\">Decorative Attachments (Optional)<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><span style=\"color: #000000;\">The easiest way to show you how to complete this look is simply <span style=\"color: #008080;\"><a style=\"color: #008080;\" href=\"https:\/\/youtu.be\/8_cvBZcT52U\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">watching this video below<\/a><\/span> on how to create the criss-cross ribbon Christmas tree.<\/span><br \/>\n<iframe src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/8_cvBZcT52U?rel=0\" width=\"560\" height=\"315\" frameborder=\"0\" allowfullscreen=\"allowfullscreen\"><\/iframe><br \/>\n<span style=\"color: #000000;\">If you\u2019re celebrating Christmas this season, then you can\u2019t miss our\u00a0<span style=\"color: #008080;\"><a style=\"color: #008080;\" href=\"https:\/\/toritoth.leadpages.co\/christmas-wall-art\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">FREE Christmas Wall Art Printables<\/a><\/span>!
