Xmas Tree Topper - Bow

Product Information

If you’ve learned to crochet, sew, knit or whittle, think about using your newfound talent to make your own Christmas decorations. You’ll want to take measurements before purchasing a topper to make sure you aren’t buying one too small or too big for your tree. Big trees generally need larger toppers, whereas smaller trees need smaller toppers. For a small tree, we love the Starlight Collection Red Santa Finial Tree Topper for its dainty size, and for a larger tree topper, we like the Balsam Hill Capiz Lighted Angel. You’ll also want to make sure your topper isn’t too heavy, as you don’t want it bending the top branch that it’s attached to, or weighing down your tree and falling off. Material To make your first loop, unravel about 12 inches of ribbon from your roll, and create a loop. Next, create another loop by pulling out more ribbon and creating kind of a figure 8, then pinch both loops together at their bases. Finial Christmas tree toppers are elongated decorations placed at the top of the tree. These pair well with contemporary-themed decorations.

The size of your topper should also be proportional to that of your tree. If you have a standard-sized tree measuring up to 7.5 feet tall, opt for a small tree topper. On the other hand, a large topper is ideal for taller Christmas trees that make a statement. Go for a star, angel, or bow topper for full-shaped trees and complement slim trees with elegant toppers.
