Begin by making one loop with the ribbon. From the tail of the ribbon to the loop should be 7-8 inches.

Continue Making Loops

Continue making loops that are 7-8 inches in length until you have at least 5 loops on either side. Cut the ribbon so that the remaining tail is facing the opposite direction of the beginning tail.
