First, unravel all the materials from the Witch Hat Form Dollar Tree. Strip the form down to its bare frame.
Cover the frame with a red velvet ribbon. Use a two and a half-inch wire edged ribbon. Starting from the bottom, punch a hole on the ribbon and tie it securely to the frame. Wrap the ribbon around the frame carefully, fixing any buckles or uneven pieces. If you have trouble with the frame’s pieces sticking out, trim them with scissors for a smoother surface.
