Wrap Ribbon Around Chair
Starting and ending at the back of the chair, wrap a ribbon around the back of each dining chair two times. Tie loosely in the center of the chair, leaving a long length of ribbon on both sides.

Disassemble Holiday Floral Picks
Use scissors to cut apart holiday picks floral picks, like faux greenery. Tip: Aim for an even mix of flat pieces (like greenery) and larger, 3-D pieces (such as pine cones or holly berries). Leave plastic stems attached; it will be easier to affix each piece to the ribbon.
