Christmas Bow Decorations

• Replace those fragile and boring Christmas lights with simple green and red bows. Spread them evenly and generously all over the Christmas tree and complete the tree by placing a strand of white lights on it.
• Take a plain wheelbarrow or a basket and fill it with greenery from your tree and wrap it with a simple horizontal bow using plaid ribbon and wide sheer bendable ribbon with wire. Tie a similar sized vertical bow through the centre of the previous bow and adjust the arrangement to give it a blossomed look.
• You can create a similar centerpiece by wrapping any ordinary lampshade with bows and tying some holly and other remains of old Christmas picks along with.
• Wrap your houseplants with ribbon and place bows on them, either on the container or on branches, depending upon the size of the plant.
• Make similar bows to tie around doorknobs, sconces, fireplace mantels and atop entryway mirrors.
• Tie your home décor complimenting ribbons around curtains as tiebacks and finish up with contrasting colour bows.
• Oversized bows work as fabulous decoratives for main doors, garage doors, and outdoor trees.
• Mailboxes can also serve for great Christmas decorations. You can wrap it up in sheer red net ribbons with gold tapering and tie a bow on top. You can also wrap a rectangular cardboard vase-box in plain white paper, brand it as “Christmas Post” and hot glue it to your main Mailbox and then decorate it with greenery, baubles, and more bows.
• If after your Christmas decorations, you feel that there is too much colour around you and that there is need to neutralise some of it then make a large garland of popcorns on a fishing line and use it to either make a huge white bow to tie around your tree or simply place it over the tree for a contrasting effect.
• Tape two candies together to make a heart. Insert some fake bright green greenery at the tip so that it divides the heart from the center. Wrap a thin ribbon around the heart horizontally and make a 4-petal bow in the center. This can be an ornament or a showpiece on the table.
• You can also add festivity to your bathroom by pinning your shower curtains with bow-wrapped unbreakable ornaments
• Take a bunch of jingle bells and generously adorn the bunch with elaborate bows made of red-golden or blue-silver ribbons. Hang this above the fireplace.
• You can also further embellish your bows by adding a miniature golden reindeer or Santa in the middle of a red bow. While tying bows on gift wraps, little twigs and greenery sticking out from behind elaborate bows adds finesse to the do.
• You can tuck mistletoe and pine right beside the bow or glue it nearby to get the traditional look (mistletoe) and a sweet fragrance (pine). Tie a bow around a bunch of cinnamon sticks to make attractive room fresheners.
