Turn your wall into a photograph extravaganza cause pictures should be displayed, not hidden away!
The amount of ribbon and nails depend on how many rows of pictures you desire, and how far down the wall you want them to travel.

These are about five.five feet long and cover most of the wall!

    Step 1

    First, Cut the ribbon. I cut six pieces to about 5.5 feet, which takes up most of the wall.

    Then, to stop the ends of the ribbon from fraying, use the lighter to melt the ends.

    Be sure not to get the lighter to close or for too long. Just get closer and closer until the end of the ribbon melts just a bit.

    These marks are going to be covered by the ribbon.

    (Mine are 14" apart.)

Cute idea but the nails would leave holes in the wall which looks really ugly when you take these down
