Yesterday I made an embroidery hoop ribbon boho-style hanging. All you need to make this project is an embroidery hoop and various ribbons.
After completing my DIY project, I hung it in the dining space since there was already a hook in the ceiling.
Why You Should DIY a Ribbon Embroidery Hoop
Looking for a budget-friendly and creative way to add charm to your home décor? A DIY ribbon embroidery hoop hanging from the ceiling is the perfect craft project. This simple yet elegant decoration can instantly bring color, texture, and personality to any room.
If you want a whimsical touch to add a cozy vibe to your living room, ribbon hoop hangings are versatile and easy to make.
1. Affordable and Budget-Friendly
Decorating can get expensive, but ribbon hoop hangings are a cost-effective option. All you need is an embroidery hoop, ribbons in your favorite colors, and some string or fishing line for hanging. Most materials can be found at craft stores or even in your own stash of leftover supplies.
2. Easy DIY Project for Beginners
Even if you’re new to crafting, a ribbon embroidery hoop is one of the easiest DIY décor projects. Tie or glue ribbons onto an embroidery hoop and hang it from the ceiling—it’s that simple! You don’t need advanced skills, and the results look professional and stylish.
3. Customizable for Any Space
One of the best things about ribbon hoop hangings is their flexibility. You can choose ribbons that match your home décor style, whether it’s farmhouse, boho, cottagecore, or minimalist. Use earthy tones for a rustic room, or metallic ribbons for a festive celebration.
4. Perfect for Events and Celebrations
Ribbon hoop hangings aren’t just for everyday décor—they’re fantastic for parties, weddings, or seasonal decorations. Hanging multiple hoops at different heights creates a magical backdrop for photos or an enchanting display over a dining table.
You could use red, white, and blue ribbon for the 4th of July. Maybe red, green, and gold for Christmas. Halloween would invite orange and black ribbons for DIY.
5. Adds Movement and Texture
When hung from the ceiling, ribbons naturally sway with the air, adding gentle movement to your space. This gives your room a soft, airy feel that fabric wall art or framed pictures can’t replicate.
6. Eco-Friendly Crafting
If you want to be environmentally conscious, ribbon hoop hangings are a sustainable choice. You can reuse old ribbons, fabric strips, or lace scraps, giving new life to materials that might otherwise go to waste.
7. A Handmade Personal Touch
DIY decorations always add warmth and character to a home. By making your own ribbon hoop, you’re creating something one-of-a-kind that reflects your style and creativity. It’s not just décor—it’s art with a personal story behind it.
Final Thoughts
A DIY ribbon embroidery hoop hanging from the ceiling is the perfect project to try if you’re looking for easy and affordable home décor. It’s beginner-friendly, versatile for any space or event, and adds a beautiful handmade charm to your home.
With just a few supplies, you can create a decoration that brings joy, color, and creativity into your life.
How-To Make Embroidery Hoop Ribbon Hanging:
- Decide on a color palette for ribbon choices.
- Cut ribbons of your choice to the same length.
- Using a basic loop knot, tie each ribbon around the hoop.
- Hang it in the ceiling or from another surface.
My Boho Project Color Palette:
I decided on a color palette of white, beige, gold, brown, green, and black. To me, these colors symbolize the earth and nature, especially in the fall. I used some see-through gauzy ribbons and paired them with plain ribbons.
I used a simple loop to tie the strands of ribbon onto the hoop that I found online. It is the same one I used for my green boho hanging last week. Then I tied a knot to keep it from slipping out of the loop.
When using shiny ribbon, the first loop doesn’t want to hold. So I had to tie a knot after I made the loop to keep it in place.
The Basic Loop Knot I Used:
I found a photo of the basic loop knot that I used online.
I used the ribbon I had on hand, and I already had an embroidery hoop. So this project didn’t cost me a cent.
I used three pieces of jute to hang my boho-inspired DIY project from the ceiling. You could also use ribbon to hang it, but I was running low on ribbon by the time I finished this project. Once I had hung it up from the ceiling, I stood below with scissors and gave it a more layered look by snipping some of the ribbon.
I’ve got lots of things in my craft cabinet I can use on future DIY boho projects. I know I have feathers and all kinds of beads. I’ll have to check Pinterest for some inspiration on other people’s bohemian-inspired projects.
Furthermore, I also have a whole Pinterest board on Bohemian Style.
Ivy Discovers The Boho Hanging:
Uh-oh. Ivy has found it. She had a big time pulling at my ribbon while I was working on this. But finally she got tired and took a nap, so I was able to finish it.
Looks like I might have to move it up a bit higher before she manages to pull it down.
It is Charlie Ross’s birthday. He is 13 years old today. Thirteen years of having my sweet boy in my life. He is cherished and loved so very, very much.
I love the Boho style and it seemed easy to do so and you the color you pick were complementing to each other. It really surely adds more elements to your house.

Happy Birthday Charlie Boy!
Kisses from my two kitties.
Charlie shares a birthday with one of my nieces.
Love the craft!
Happ py belated,Charlie!
It’s Thursday morning,I missed yesterday’s post,cortisone shot….
Not sure which hanging I like better,they’re both awesome.
That Ivy is a hoot,never a dull moment,I guess.
Happy Belated Birthday wishes to Charlie. He looks so handsome with his new “hair” cut.
Love your bohemian ribbon hanging. This sounds like a craft that I can handle and it looks so pretty. I can also imagine some tiny bells attached to the pieces of ribbon. Not quite sure how I would do that but I’ll bet it would be pretty and sound nice when the breeze stirs it.
I have been reading your posts each day but have not been commenting; I am sleep deprived and unable to get my thoughts together to post. This is sort of your fault. I have been watching Broadchurch and have gotten “hooked.” What a great series.
Take care and enjoy your Thursday.
Happy Birthday Wishes to sweet Charlie Ross. Adorable with his haircut.
As I was reading your post, I said, “Uh oh. That’s just tempting Ivy!” I knew she was long enough to stand on your table and reach the ribbons.
Your other post about Ivy leaving her green spiral toy right in the center of your decorative heart in the basket was too funny!! She knew you’d find it there!
HaPpY Birthday to huggable, lovable Charlie! Such a big blessing in a small package ❤️
Happy Birthday, Charlie Ross!
The Boho transformations are lovely.
Ivy is such a delight, even when she’s being mischievous.
Awe..Happy Thirteen, Charlie…so precious. Wow..you did a great job on another beautiful project…love it.. The quilt hanging is also so colorful and nice. That Ivy is quite a very busy bee…lol so funny…!! She doesn’t miss a thing.. Looks like a fun day.
Happy Birthday to sweet Charlie! Such a precious boy…
Happy Birthday Charlie!!!! You have a wonderful life little man and a wonderful mom who loves you very much.
I was wondering if Ivy was going to find this! So funny.
Happy Birthday Charlie Ross! ?
oh Happy Birthday darling little Charlie Ross.
do you have any idea how LOVED you are? XOXO
Happy Birthday Charlie.
Ivy is so funny.
Love your boho projects.
Love your boho project. I’m sure it’s pretty dancing in a breeze. And Happy Birthday to Charlie. Gotta love our little guys to pieces. My daughter just made broccoli oatmeal
and egg mixed together then plopped them in the dehydrator. Dogs love them. Their favorite is the chicken feet she does for them.
Oh, Happy birthday, Charlie! Have some good snuggles with your Mamma!
Happy Birthday, Sweet Charlie!!
I’m just commenting to thank you so much for telling me about Broadstreet on Netflix. Wow! It is so good and I’m sure I never would have watched it if not for your suggestion. I’ve tried to watch a few shows that I didn’t like and just sort of gave up. I’ve watched three episodes so far and am really enjoying it, and you’re right, the acting is superb. It seems like the acting is more important than appearance in the British productions. Thanks again, and please keep up the recommendations.
Happy B-day Charlie Ross! Your hoop is beautiful! You are creative in so many ways!
Love that Ivy ! Charlie Ross is looking quite dapper. Your boho
crafts look great. I bet it is fun to
do them. Maybe your grandson would have fun with you making some as well. Might be a fun project
Brenda – Your lovely creation reminded me of a project for my son’s wedding reception. I used hula hoops from the dollar store and various sizes and colors of satin and organza ribbon to make larger versions for this outdoor wedding reception where there were large trees and a patio cover to hang them from. I also added small battery powered lanterns, so they would still be visible at night. They added color and movement to the space and were pretty inexpensive to make.
HAPPIEST OF BIRTHDAYS TO YOUR SWEET, PRECIOUS CHARLIE ! MY CRICKET WAS 12 ON AUG. 18th. GREAT TO SEE HE’S DOING WELL !
Happy birthday to sweet Charlie Ross ! Such a sweet boy and he looks so good due to your great attention and care ! It makes me smile to see his sweet face.
I love your ribbon creation and that the colors symbolize Earth. I’m amazed Ivy fell asleep and let you finish this.
Hope Charlie has a good birthday and gets an extra treat !
Love it. The colors and textures are beautiful.
Happy Birthday to Charlie Ross, and MANY more. Enjoy each and every moment!!!!!
Happy birthday to Charlie! Ivy’s antics make me chuckle.
Very pretty. You could also hang it from one edge with the top ribbons cascading down the front over the others.
It would probably give Ivy a better shot at it, haha.
Love it Brenda. I love that you are embracing the BoHo look too. You have done it nicely in your apartment.
Love seeing that sweet Charlie face. Happy Wednesday.
I meant 20 years ago that our toy poodle died at age 15.
Really great idea. I wondered about Ivy when I started reading this. I figured she would hope to have fun with it!
Happy Birthday Charlie Ross! What a blessing you have been!
Happy Happy Birthday Charlie .
My little toy poodle died at age 15. And that was 20 years.
My sister in law the Veterinarian told me 15 years was the average life span for a small dog. Our toy poodle only weighed 5 pounds.
HAPPY BIRTHDAY to Charlie Ross! Our fur baby’s are so precious and important in our lives. I have enjoyed seeing all of your boho items. I might have to try a few this winter when the days are so long and we are in the house so much more.
I look forward to your post each day.
Happy Birthday to Charlie Rose?❤️? Love his face?
