Ribbon Roundup Craft Challenge

craft challenge
This month's craft challenge theme from Blue Eyed Blessings is ribbon. Here's a couple things that I've done with ribbon recently:
Ribbon Wreath

To make this wreath, I took the solid circle piece from an embroidery hoop (this one happened to be painted blue from a previous decorating project). Then, I tied 10 inch pieces of ribbon all the way around the circle, making sure the knots were going in the same direction. Lastly, I trimmed the all the ends at an angle in the same direction and applied Fray Block.

Fabric covered notebook with ribbon pen holder This just uses a couple inches of ribbon, but I love that it makes a little pen holder on the front of this notebook. More to come soon on this project.

A couple other simple ways I've used ribbon:
And, of course Taggie Blankies:

Head over to Blued Eyed Blessings and check out the other great ribbon craft challenge ideas.

Such great and creative ideas you have to share! I love that ribbon wreath...especially the color and design of the ribbon. And, what a great idea for the car seat cover and attaching it using ribbon. So much cuter than throwing a blanket over the top of the car seat! ;) Those taggie blankets are some great treasures, I'm sure, for those little ones. They love that kind of thing!

Thank you for coming to the party...so glad you joined in! Happy Thursday!

Great ideas. I never thought to do that with my baby when she was at that stage. Come on by tomorrow for my Round Robin event if you would like.

Great ideas! I have a skirt for my daughter that could desperately use some cute trim. And the notebook is great!
