Tie one ribbon around the other so that they make an X. Lay an X on top of each Christmas Cheese Ball and tuck the pieces under the bottom so that the ribbon is tight against the cheese ball.
Tie a bow around an ornament hanger then stick the bottom of the ornament hanger into the top center of the Christmas Cheese Ball where the X crosses.
