Once upon a time there was a fair mommy who wanted to open a baby boutique... She bought all of her very most favorite baby products and accessories and an abundance of RIBBON to wrap it all up with. She wanted everyone to feel enchanted when opening her lovely gifts. To make a long story short - it didn't work out... BUT she did collect some beautiful ribbon. A few of her favorite kinds include:

Where do you purchase such ribbon?
may arts was my favorite ribbon wholesaler. So...if you happen to have a wholesale license and would like to purchase a lot of ribbon check them out(oh, and let me in on the order. I am running low and all out of my very favorites). You can also get great ribbon at scrap book stores. I don't think you can get it by the spool though. I have not found any fabric stores where I live that have "magical" ribbon but I bet some do.I have bought some recently at Michaels and it is just not the same, but will get me through for now. ha ha. I am not really that much of a "ribbon-snob", I just really "heart" it. Almost exactly the same way I love butter, only different.
Ribbon just makes everything more beautiful and more special. I use it for: gifts, scrap booking, cards, hair, home decor (I have all of my Christmas cards hanging on ribbon with little clothes pins)... so anywhere and everywhere you would like to add a little love, add some ribbon.
