Hi everyone!

Can anyone tell me where to get cheap curling ribbon from??
DD age 10 made a card with this 'holey' foil type stuff with curling ribbon woven in and out and it looked great. We bought some of the holey stuff but trying to find cheap ribbon ie a friend got 500 yards (or metres) for 95p ages ago online but I can't find any that cheap.

Any help appreciated will also try the card gals!

Have you tried looking in your local card shop for ribbon? Markets are also a good place to pick up huge rolls of curling ribbon.

Not sure if I have a local card shop but there are the large birthdays type ones in town not sure if they do the large spools. Don't normally go to any local markets due to work etc but will try and find out if they have ribbon.

Many thanks
