Ribbons FAQs
How can I use ribbons in my crafts & projects?
Ribbons can be used across a huge range of craft and sewing projects. Ribbons can be used as drawstrings on a pair of pj pants or as an embellishing trim on your range of garments. You can also use ribbons to add a beautiful finishing touch to your gift wrapping efforts, or as a textural element in papercraft and scrapbooking projects.
How to make bows from ribbons?
The key to making a beautiful ribbon bow is choosing the right ribbon. Opt for wired ribbons or tulle ribbons that will maintain their shape once created. To make the bow you can tie the ribbon like you would a shoelace, following the classic "loop the loop" or "bunny ears" method. Always give yourself extra ribbon length so you can create your ideal shape - the excess ribbon can always be trimmed once the bow is complete.
How to stop ribbon fraying?
The simplest solution for preventing your ribbon from fraying is to use some fray stopper solution. Trim your ribbon with sharp scissors to remove any loose edges, then gently apply a tiny amount of fray stopper to the edge. If you're certain that your ribbon is made from synthetic fibres like polyester or nylon, you can also (very carefully) melt the very edge with heat. Use the flame from a stovetop or lighter and gradually move the ribbon edge towards the heat source. Go slowly as you don't want to melt the whole ribbon, and make sure you do this process in a well-ventilated area.
