Cut the ribbon into strands long enough to wrap around the form and have about 4" of hanging ends.
Cut the ends of the strands on an angle.
Starting with the widest ribbon, wrap and tie one ribbon at a time around the form. Tie each ribbon with a double knot, placing the knot at the outer edge of the form.
Space the ribbon strands evenly apart around the form.
Begin layering another ribbon on to the wreath form.
Continue adding more ribbon around the wreath and overlap with the previous ribbon layers to hide the styrofoam form underneath.
Once all the form is no longer visible, the Halloween ribbon wreath is complete!
