diy~ ombre cake garland
It is simple and so pretty.
what you’ll need: scissors, bamboo skewers, different shades of ribbon to get the ombré effect, and a cake, of course!
first, cut several 14 inch strips of ribbon in each color. you’ll need enough to tie across your cake.
while alternating colors, tie each ribbon across one ribbon (the base of the garland) using a crow hitch knot (shown above).
carefully cinch each knot going in the same direction across the base ribbon until you get all the way across.
once complete, insert your skewers into the cake, letting the ribbon hang free.
then trim the ribbon to your desired length, and you’re done!
don’t you love how sweet and simple this is?
on another note- thinking about going ombre with my hair – thoughts?!
