Hi everyone, it’s Miriam! With Christmas just around the corner, I’m getting my decorations ready, and this year, I’m focusing on beautiful velvet ribbons to add that elegant, festive touch to my Christmas tree. Velvet ribbons are such a simple yet luxurious way to elevate holiday decor. From rich burgundy and emerald green to metallic champagne and gold, these ribbons create a classic, sophisticated look.
Let’s dive into my favorite picks to make your Christmas tree—and entire holiday decor—absolutely stunning!
1. Classic White Velvet Ribbons for a Winter Wonderland Look
I started with the Velvet Ribbon Set in White for a clean, classic look. These 1-inch ribbons are perfect for adding subtle elegance to a Christmas tree or wreath. They create a “snowy” look when paired with evergreen branches, giving your decor a winter wonderland vibe. Plus, they’re versatile enough to use for other seasons and gift wrapping!
2. Double-Sided Gray and Gold Velvet Ribbon
For a unique, chic touch, I added this Gray Velvet Wired Ribbon with Gold Backing. The gray/pewter and gold combination is sophisticated and perfect for anyone going for a modern holiday look. It’s 4 inches wide, which makes it ideal for bold, draped loops or big bows that add volume and texture to the tree.
3. Burgundy Velvet Bows for a Pop of Color
Nothing says Christmas like rich red accents, and these Burgundy Velvet Wreath Bows bring warmth and charm. These 5×7 inch bows are pre-tied and ready to hang on your tree, wreaths, or garlands. I love adding them in clusters for a classic holiday feel, and they make decorating so much easier!
4. Luxurious Burgundy Velvet Ribbon Roll
For a larger roll of burgundy, I recommend the Homeford Burgundy Velvet Wired Ribbon. This 4-inch wide, 50-yard roll gives you plenty of ribbon to work with. Whether you’re weaving it through branches or creating big, cascading bows, this velvet ribbon adds richness and depth to any tree.
5. Unique Blue and Silver Velvet Ribbon Set
If you’re looking to add a non-traditional color, this Blue and Silver Velvet Ribbon Set is absolutely stunning. It includes three spools with silk backing and glittery accents, perfect for creating a cool wintery theme on your tree. The blue tones are fresh and unexpected, adding a modern twist to holiday decor.
6. Black and Gold Velvet for Dramatic Contrast
For those who love a bold, dramatic look, the Riceshoot Black and Gold Velvet Ribbon is a must-have. This set comes with two rolls in 1.5 and 2.5-inch widths, allowing you to layer different sizes for an eye-catching effect. The black velvet with gold edging adds elegance and depth, perfect for sophisticated holiday decor.
7. Dark Red Velvet with a Greek Key Gold Edge
For a touch of vintage elegance, the MEEDEE Burgundy Velvet Ribbon with Gold Greek Key Edge is a standout. The gold Greek key pattern along the edge adds a unique and luxurious detail, perfect for wrapping around the tree or adding to large statement bows.

A classic red velvet with a twist—this HUIHUANG Red and Gold Velvet Ribbon is double-sided, making it easy to create lush, reversible bows and loops. The 2.5-inch width is perfect for adding dimension, and the gold backing adds a hint of shimmer without overpowering the classic red color.
10. Champagne Gold Velvet Ribbon for Subtle Glam
For those who prefer a softer, more neutral look, the Champagne Gold Velvet Ribbon is a great choice. This 2.5-inch wide ribbon adds a touch of glam to your decor without being too bold. I love using it alongside deeper colors like burgundy or green for a balanced, elegant look.
11. Metallic Khaki Gold Velvet for a Warm, Earthy Look
The Ribbli Camel Velvet Ribbon in metallic khaki gold offers a warm, earthy tone that’s ideal for a rustic or farmhouse-style Christmas tree. This continuous 10-yard ribbon is great for wrapping gifts, adding to wreaths, or weaving through tree branches for a soft, natural look.

If one roll of champagne isn’t enough, this Double Roll Champagne Gold Velvet Ribbon Set provides 20 yards of beautiful velvet. Layering multiple strands of this soft gold ribbon gives your tree a luxurious, layered look that’s both timeless and festive.

For an earthy, elegant look, try the May Arts Green Velvet Ribbon with Gold Backing. This 4-inch wide ribbon is perfect for big bows and adds a rich, forest green color with a pop of gold. It’s ideal for both traditional and modern holiday styles.
