Crafty Ribbons
"Crafty Ribbons is a ribbon emporium, we are passionate about ribbon and want to share our fantastic ribbons with others. Remember when we only used ribbons to add a bow to our hair, or tie up a birthday parcel? Ribbons are now a "must-have" for all types of craft. Whether your project requires satin, sheer, silk, grosgrain, gingham or polka dot ribbon we have them all! Lots and lots of different colours in a range of widths, we even have a ribbonbox to keep them in! Perfect for a ribbon craft fairy. With a few simple instructions turn your hand to ribbon embroidery, with soft and delicious sheer or pure silk ribbons. Need a little bit of ribbon inspiration - then have a look at our projects, they use nothing but ribbon. Go on, have a try... It's worth it ! Tony & Ali"
