Here’s How To Make A Glitzy New Year’s Eve Backdrop
Essentially you will need to select a number of ribbon colors and patterns that fit your theme and tie them to a wooden rod or pole. It’s super easy and really, only two steps.
- First, cut your ribbon into long pieces (twice the length desired for the final product), then grab the middle of the ribbon piece and place on top of the dowel.
- Next, grab the two ends and pull through the loop, then pull tight. Repeat these steps, alternating colors until the dowl is covered.
We suggest adding enough ribbons so they create a wide enough effect for your backdrop to take up the entire background of your photos. Happy crafting and Happy New Year!
