Christmas Tree Ribbons — Decorative & Seasonal Styles

For a 9-foot Christmas tree, 2.5-inch wide wired ribbon is the most commonly recommended option for cascading loops and tucked ribbon garlands. A 4-inch wide burlap wired ribbon creates a bold, rustic statement. Narrower widths like 1.5-inch glitter or satin ribbon work best as accent layers or for wrapping individual branches and ornament ties.

Yes — wired ribbon is generally preferred for Christmas tree decorating because the wire edges allow you to shape, bend, and fluff the ribbon into bows, loops, or cascading garlands that hold their form. Morex Burlap Wired Ribbon is available in widths up to 4 inches, making it ideal for full, dramatic tree arrangements.

A general guideline is 9 feet of ribbon per foot of tree height. For a 6-foot tree, plan for approximately 54 feet (18 yards); for a 9-foot tree, around 81 feet (27 yards). Using multiple ribbon types — such as a wide wired ribbon for loops and a narrow glitter accent ribbon — will increase your total yardage requirements.
