Take shaped sugar cookies and place them on wax paper.
Take icing and decorate the way you want to decorate your Christmas cookie ornaments. I used lots of lines and swirls on mine to make patterns. You can add these however you want.
Add sprinkles on top of the icing before it dries at all. This acts as a glue for the sprinkles.
Let icing dry completely.
Cut a short amount of ribbon. I find shorter ribbon is good for smaller cookies but larger cookies need more ribbon to balance out the weight.
Turn cookie over and put a small amount of icing in a dot on the back. Make ribbon into a loop with ends touching and push ends of ribbon into the icing. If you need to, you can use icing between the ribbons as well to glue them together.
Let icing dry completely.
If you don't want these to be edible you can use hot glue to attach the ribbon.
