New ribbon now available

Beautiful!

Too bad I just never use ribbon in my scrapbooking. I am making some cards for christmas and am trying to use up some of my stash of ribbon and it's rather slow going!

Tori said...

useless ribbon...my eyes! you are so talented beyond fairness...I love everything you do and can't wait to get my hands on some of that!!

Susie said...

Yay! I love the ones with the darker backgrounds, they're perfect for dog collars! The others are are fun too, but dirt shows up pretty easily on the lighter colors. I'm sure I can find SOMETHING to use them for! Oh this will be fun...

Hey, looks great!

Oh my goodness! I love these! Can I put in a request for some wider ribbon? I could see really cool aprons with these!

Rhonda said...

The ribbons are great! I might secretly love the pea pod.

Jessica Jones said...

Guess that's not a secret anymore.

Stop now! I beg you! I am going to have no money for food or shelter.

Wickedly cute!

My faves are the B&W sunflowers.

Hi, Mumsy. I'm reading Grace Eventually by Anne Lamott. Oh, did you mean what's the book in the photo? :) It's a philosophy book. That's the Descartes section. I needed a fat book with no pictures and small type. The ribbons looked like bookmarks to me, so I wanted to shoot them that way. Does it look interesting to you? Want to borrow it?

Andi said...

They look beautiful. Congratulations.
Andi :-)

Victoria said...

Grandma G said...

But hey... my word verification letters are "readerer". :-)

Well, I won't stop you.

Ooo, would make very pretty wrapping on xmas gifts in kraft papers. Or hair decor for those with long locks. Trim a few lamp shades or roller shades. Make one of those french message boards with the criss-crossed ribbons. Hang holiday cards from strips of this mounted on a wall or door with a push pin.

Useless? I think not!

Jessica Jones said...

Whoa. You're a good salesman. Awesome ideas!

Is there any place I can buy your ribbons or fabric other than jcarolinecreative? Their shipping cost to Australia is outrageous. $45 for 2 metres of ribbon?
Do you have an etsy shop or equivalent?

Larissa Holland said...

wow. those are really pretty! now don't you like ribbon?

jen duncan said...

Stupid and useless!? NO WAY! I think everyone should offer a coordinating ribbon with their fabrics! Brilliant. :-)

Jennifer Katherine said...

How fun!

Deece said...

I like these prints as fabric, but I LOVE them as ribbon! I rarely buy ribbon, but I think I might need to get me some of these!

Vacuum Queen said...

OK..don't take this the wrong way, but I think I like the ribbon even better than the fabric. I've used your peapod fabric and actually that whole first collection quite a bit. I'm ready for new ideas and then BAM, here comes ribbon. I think it'd be great to trim things that are next to my fabric projects. Whee!

Jessica said...

**drooling slightly*** Methinks I must make a dog collar with this ribbon!!!!

Pina said...

However 'stupid and useless' they may be, they are very beautiful! :)

You are a bad bad woman. That ribbon is absolutely divine. Must resist the ribbon... Must resist the ribbon......

your ribbons are fantastic.

Can I ask you who you use to create them? I'd love to make some special ribbon just for my business.

Kati said...

LOVE THESE!!! Nice work (as always) Jessica!

Your stuff is always beautiful!

You are so talented!

Kat, JCaroline arranged the printing, and I don't actually know which vendor they use or what the minimums are. Sorry I'm not too helpful.

And regarding international shipping, for anyone who wonders... JCaroline Creative has their site set up to estimate shipping costs for checkout purposes, and the actual shipping is often much less than what's quoted to you. If your ribbons fit in a flat rate envelope, they can ship them for $11.35. They charge you whatever the actual shipping cost ends up being. If you have questions about what the actual shipping cost will be to where you are, email them for more information. Hope that's helpful.

Love the ribbons! Must resist adding to my stash! Augh but I can't!

Katie said...

The ribbon is wonderful! I love ribbon and its best role is just adding a bit of fabulousness or refinery to just about anything :).

icicle said...

so useable! i have been collecting ribbon like this since last christmas. i make ornaments. typically i use vintage ribbon but these are great! i buy those round wooden rings (for hanging curtains) and wrap the ribbon around, attaching it with a hot glue gun occasionally, then attaching a bell or ribbon to the top center...so it hangs in the middle of the ring)

Mellisa said...

Pretty pretty! Looks like something I could quite happily horde :)

Heather said...

so yummy. . . my little girl probably needs some so her mama can embelish skirts, jumpers and her hair.
