Many Uses for Pretty Ribbons

Over the years, I've accumulated shelves full of vintage ribbons and lace, but hadn't figured out what to use it for. I was delighted to find this book with a wide variety of projects. Some use fabric, but others are paper projects using ribbon. With ribbons, you can decorate a desk set, a hatbox, a journal, a pillow, etc. Add ribbon flowers to a picture, notecards, a tea cloth, a bookmark. The book tells you how to make a folding screen crisscrossed by ribbon, pretty up a trinket box, and other projects. Each of the four contributors has a section featuring their projects and their special style with ribbon work. I'd never thought of stamping on ribbons. Lots of fun ideas in this book!
