Hi Everyone

Todays blog is going to be different to my other blogs. I am going to show you all a video tutorial on how to make a ribbon wreath for christmas using our gorgeous sage green satin ribbon.

I have been demonstrating this ribbon wreath over the weekend at the Big Stamp and Scrapbooking Show at Alexander Palace over the weekend and all the customers loved the idea. I promised them all that I would upload a tutorial on how to make the wreath, so here it is. . . hope you like it :)

I have finished off the wreath with a simple ribbon bow made from red grosgrain. All the papers used for this design are part of the Pepper Christmas Party Collection pack which i bought last year from a craft show.

So have a go and try it with different colours of ribbon, I’ve used 10mm wide sage green ribbon because at the moment its my favourite colour. If you get a chance send in a pic by e-mail of your finished wreath, I would love to see your final design.

    Hi Mei

    What a brilliant tutorial – very different and effective. I must have a go and as you suggest use different colours, although I do like your sage green ribbon. Your products are always first class along with your service.

    Take care

    Hi, thank you so much for the ideas yesterday in Belfast Craft Fair, I loved the hairband idea and the Christmas wreath – I thought the green ribbon and red ribbon would make lovely covers for cheap napkin rings for your Christmas table or other colours for more contempory. I was making a wreath last night just to make sure I had the technique right.

    Thanks again Heather

    I’ve just made this using lilac ribbon and attatching it to a headband, using double sided tape, it looks great.

    I had a go at your stand at the Hobbycraft exhibition in Glasgow SSEC at the weekend, bought the ribbon from you and couldn’t wait to try it out! Now just need to knit a matching jumper for my wee girl with the yarn I bought on the same day!

    Watched your demo at the NEC went home practised it then went to my usual crafting class and showed my class mates how to do it. By the way loved your demo and your other cards.

    Watched your demo at Bluewater and you were very patient with me. You had to show me several times and then you kindly let me have a go and I have been practising ever since. It’s very clever and beautiful. Thank you.
