Hello all,

Eeek I found the 2 colour easier to do than the single colour yet it seems some others are struggling. Thanks Crystalclear for the links to my demos ... hope they help.

no it was 39p a metre
yes its 3 inches deep
its single satin ribbon
its regular satin ribbon
but only shiny on one
side,its thin but perfect
for this type of thing
the double satin ribbon
ribbon is thicker and shiny
on both sides thats around
59p a metre.

must add I do have plenty of ribbon left over
its just put on the spot I played safe and bought plenty

That is so cheap for ribbon where did you get it from?

gingababe

1 bath sheet -£3
1 bath towel - £2
3 hand towels - £2.50
2 face cloths - 50p
3 metres Ribbon - £1.20
pearl rope £3




I think having done this one I realise now that there
are ways and means to bring the cost down to make
this a bit cheaper next time.

Can I ask where did you get the pearl rope from??

Many thanks

Hello,

Im still struggling with the 2 colour ones, maybe its my flannels - they are slighly old and not a very good shape!!

I cant work the reindeer one out either . I need to actually see one being made!! lol
