Gifting with ribbons

Hi fellow ribbon lovers.

I have often given ribbon "birthday cakes",  to my fellow crafters, floral designers, scrap bookers, and romantic ribbon lovers.

You can use any combination of Over the Moon Ribbons to make an exquisite "cake of ribbons".
a color theme may be in order, or perhaps an approaching holiday, and therein lies the fun; using different combinations of ribbon

Of course you don't have to use the birthday candle if you would like to give for another reason, such as newly expectant mother to decorate the nursery, or a cheerleader with different ribbons of her school colors.
I used a narrow plastic bag to wrap the ribbons, such as clear bags that newspapers come in. One could use cellophane as well, and of course shrink wrap would be fabulous.

If you would like to order a ribbon combination from Over the Moon, in your notes include, "please include plastic bag"

Soon to come to Over the Moon "goodie bags" You will love them, they will include at least 5 rolls of  ribbons for $8.00. Perfect for the "Ribbon Cake."

There is a chance you may not want to wait for me to get my act together, in that case contact me ribbonlady

Until next time,

Seat Belt Purse

I love my Harveys Seatbelt Bag!!! I bought it from Material Girl.  The bag is great and so is the company. They offer excellent customer service important to us and one of our strengths at Over the Moon Ribbons, I love them.


The bag comes in several styles and many colors.  I purchased mine in an olive green (love that green-- my favorite).  Then I went crazy one day adding Over the Moon's cheetah ribbon to it. The cheetah ribbon is from our new safari collection.


 It was so easy and lots of fun. I can change it whenever I want to.
The method used was to cut 3 lengths of ribbon a bit longer than the circumference of the bag.


Weave the ribbon in and out of the weaving already present. When the ribbons joined, I stapled them and hid them under the non cheetah spot. It took me about eight minutes to complete, and any 1-1/2" ribbon can be used.

Hope I have inspired you.
