This simple twig star is only held together by some beautiful but trusty ribbon/cord from Ribbon Resource. The hardest part about it is searching for the sticks/twigs in the yard. The best part is right now over on Ribbon Resource when you place an order you get a free roll of Christmas ribbon free...all month long with every order.
