In all honesty, the reason this ribbon has been in my stash is that I didn't like the color and couldn't find a use for it. However, I really like the way it looks made into napkin holders that can be used year round.
Next I decided to create a couple of sets as gifts for friends. (Wasn't it lucky for me that Hobby Lobby had all their ribbon on sale for 50% off last week!) I made a set of 8 purple holders for one friend and a set of 6 striped holders for a Christmas gift for another friend. These are also 1 1/2" tall.
And finally, since there was 8" of PVC pipe left, I made a set of 8 one-inch holders for me in my favorite color.
Every time I completed a set, I decided that was my favorite one! I really like the way they all turned out and am looking forward to using these and giving them as gifts. Which ones do you like best?
BTW - The Giving Well workshop provides step-by-step directions for 14 handmade gift ideas and registration is open until November 3. Check it out!
oh, I can't choose because each one I got to I thought I love this one! They are all very cute :)
ReplyDeleteI have been so slack, and haven't even tried to catch up with this class, but this is a fantastic idea! I love the yellow ones you made last (and the purple ones are pretty cool!)!
ReplyDeleteI definitely prefer the smaller size rings - good for you for trying that out! Now to figure out what I could use in place of the pvc pipe (I don't have the tools to cut it even if I bought it). I think I like the yellow ones best!
ReplyDeletevery cute! I really like the yellow ones. Or the polka dotted Christmas ones!
ReplyDeleteI really couldn't choose! You must have been working up quite a heat with the hot glue gun to get these all completed so beautifully

I'm a fan of the smaller ones too. I can't believe how many sets you made! Gorgeous.
ReplyDeleteThese are brilliant - my fave is the brown stripey one and your cute little ones too!
