    I'll start looking for pretty ribbons on the clearance tables too.....

    I'm wondering though....instead of gluing & stapling, would it work if I serged the ribbons and then flipped them right side out to make it more of a permanent thing - not coming apart in my decorations box or anything....or is ribbon to "flimsy" to try to do this with??

    Anyone know??

    Martha Stewart has such neat ideas.

    Debbie, I'm sure you could serge the ends. I don't think that would be a problem at all.

    Lots of ribbon goes on sale after Christmas and I've also seen ribbon at yard sales.
