    This video is the first one I watched of Laura! I was trying to figure out how to work with ribbons and make bows. And then I realized she was a gardener pro and kept watching because I didn’t know what to do with my garden either 😂 Can’t believe it’s been 5 years already! 🎄❤️

    I'm a complete untalented bow maker. And of all the videos I've been looking at to learn how to do them, this is the best! Holiday greetings from Colombia 🎄

    I watched this when you first did it and loved it. Now years later, I've viewed other intructional ribbon videos and I always come back to this. It is explained the clearest and is really the prettiest I've seen. Some trees are so covered with ribbon, you can't see the tree or the ornaments. Just love this, Laura. Thank you again.

    I never thought to cut my ribbon in separate lengths. If the roll was 30 feet, it went around the tree and looked like I was straggling the tree to death. LOL! Thanks for teaching the correct way to add ribbon!☺️

    I've watched a lot of videos on RUclips on how to decorate a tree with ribbon and bows, but this is, by far, the best one I've seen. The problem with most of them is that you can't really see what the person is doing. This video clearly shows and you clearly explain all of the details. Thank you!

    I love ribbon my grandmother and I used to she taught me many ways to make bows packages for the tree for all kinds of things so when I watch you it takes me back and I remember I have been that's sort of my signature making bows for since I was a kid almost I now 66 pretty much retired but I still love making bows course when you make bows that means you end up decorating homes and other things as well love your work keep it up

This Christmas is going to be so special for you and your family with Benjamin's wide-eyed wonderment. Enjoy every second.

    Finally, after almost 44 years on this earth, I understand how to make these decorative ribbon bows. Past attempts lacked too many steps, that now seem so obvious watching you do it. Seems like your way of doing this is easier than others I’ve seen. I just might give it whirl again this year! Thanks so much for showing us how to do things in such an easy manner! Happy Thanksgiving!

      I understand how you feel.My friend from Philly used to visit me in VA.Bch. at least 3 times a year she would make me lots of Bows for upcoming holiday events. I couldn't make me a bow for nothing. That was in the 90's Once day I went and purchased another bow maker and didn't go to sleep until I could make these bows. After 4 hours I got it.Now I make double and triple bows. I thank the Lord everyday for this gift of crafting

    I have never liked ribbons on trees. Ever. But this, THIS is pretty. I think because it's not so 'full' and taking over the tree. And I love YOU! You explain things so well and SHOW how to do things. I just found you recently and just moved in to a colonial revival house with no clue how to do the yard. I'll be devouring every vid you make.

I'm going to share your video with both of them ...I also love the way you use 3 or 4 different ribbons on the same tree. Two are usually what I've used in the past but I really love the look of your tree ...so I'll be using more different ribbons this year. Thanks for the great tutorial & I love the nutcrackers!
