Some Hanging Decor {Deck The Halls}

So I found this idea on pinterest as you can see on my 12 Crafts of Christmas post. I decided I wanted to have some fun with some of my extra ornaments and make a hanging center piece from my chandelier.  So here it is dolls. 
Check it out.

Step 1: Get It Together
Just grab whatever your little heart desires.  I used my blue ornaments with some silver, white, and blue ribbon. I also made sure I had different sizes and different thickness.
 Step 2: Tie Your Ribbon to Your Chandelier 
I tied the ribbon so that both sides could hang down.  I did different lengths to give it a little dimension. 
Step 3: Add Your Ornaments
Thread your ribbon through your ornament and tie a not.  After adding the ornament I cut a triangle out of the end of the ribbon. 
 Step 4: Adjust Your Levels
Move your ornaments around. Make sure your colors and ornament sizes have some balance.
 Step 5: Add Some Spirals 
To give it a little more depth I added some spiral ribbon pieces.  Just tie them at the top just like you did with the other ribbon.  Once again, I had some different lengths to mix it up.
Step 6: Use Your Extras
I just grabbed a basket and arranged the ornaments by color and size. 
 The Finished Product

As always let me know what you think! :)
