I almost didn't watch the video because it showed the "strangled tree" in the preview. So, glad I did. I've been fighting with ribbon for years, going round and round the tree with 30 feet of ribbon and tucking, fluffing; pulling, tucking, swearing, etc. so as not to have that look. Nightmare! Just cut the ribbon - amazing. Thank you for this.

I never used ribbons because my tree had the strangled mummy look to it from my poor ribbon-attaching abilities!
