Adding Ribbon Flair To Planters - tan and white ribbon on pot of red mums sitting on a white plant stand I love using ribbon or fabric strips to dress up planters and pots.The ribbon with wire holds up the best and if outside in the elements, it keeps its shape and color. This look gives any basic pot, planter, or even a window box, that final jewelry accessory to your planting outfit.

Total Time: 20 min.

Yield: 6

Supplies:

ribbon
fabric
floral wire
scissors

Steps:

With ribbon or fabric, make loops doing figure 8s. Pinch in the center of your figure 8 and apply a piece of floral wire approximately 10 inches long. The rest of the wire, after securing the bow by looping around tightly, will be used to make a stem to go down in your planter soil.

Once your bows are made accessorize any or all of your pots.

This gives a festive fall look that will carry through the Thanksgiving season. So simple, here's how!
