Ribbon Tree
- To make such a sweet tree, which will be an excellent gift for the birthday girl, we take several types of packing tape, cut them into small pieces, reel each of them on a finger and alternately ring with pins to the ball with the help of needles.
- The decorated ball is put on a stick and fixed in a pot filled with gravel. It is possible to decorate a ready-made decorative hand-made article with a decorative one.
