Ribbon Ring cupcake parade!

This is crazy ribbon cupcake.

These ribbons remind me of chocolate curls.

Okay, so this guy isn't made of ribbon, but he is WAYYY cute.

Pink.


This pink truffle looks like sorbet.

Little irredescent truffle is one of my favorites.

Ribbon Ring strawberries

One of the most frequently asked questions I get at conventions is,"What do you do with ALL THAT RIBBON??" Firstly, all that ribbon in my booth isn't ALL my ribbon... (tee hee). My most favorite ribbons are at home, safely hanging on the wall, on Ribbon Rings, away from ICE CREAM FINGERS!!!

To answer the question: mostly I use it on scrapbook pages. Of course, I use it on other craft projects too, like cards, chipboard albums etc. My daughter occasionally let me put ribbon in her hair and I love doing that. I make beautiful ribbon bows for presents and cupcake boxes too.

I also really enjoy making little non-traditional things out of ribbon. You know, things that you wouldn't normally make out of ribbon, like cupcakes. As my previous posts have mentioned, I have made the CUTEST pink and white ribbon cupcakes that you will ever see.

So, what is next? Now I am on to strawberries! I got the idea this afternoon and I am determined to make the cutest basket full of ribbon strawberries. I will post a picture when I am done.

Ribbon Ring lowers prices!

We are in the process of lowering our Ribbon Ring prices *permanently*! How fun is that? The current sale prices will be the permanent prices after this weekend. Watch this blog for occasional free shipping codes and other special offers. We want everyone to try Ribbon Ring for their ribbon storage! We will be at the Creating Keepsakes Convention next week in Mesa, AZ. Please come by our booth #96, check out the Ribbon Ring and all of our ribbon displays!

Ribbon Ring - My favorite place to buy ribbon...

I get asked ALL THE TIME where I buy my ribbon. Well, I have been collecting it for over 12 years, so I know all the good places to find it! One of my very favorite supplies for quality grosgrain and ric rac is Really Reasonable Ribbon. I just bought 700 yards from them in fact. :) Yes 700 yards. DO NOT tell my husband. :)

I am replacing all of my personal ribbon that I take to scrapbook shows. So many people touch and handle the ribbon at my booth and I want to encourage that... just not with my own personal ribbon. Especially when a child with ice-cream fingers wants to touch all of the pink ribbon.... ACK! I know you get it... So, if you are looking for yummy ribbon, visit the Really Reasonable Ribbon website... http://www.reasonableribbon.com/.

Tell them the Ribbon Ring lady sent you! :)

Ribbon Ring is going to CK Arizona

Mark your calendars, we are going to the desert! I am sooo looking forward to a little bit of sunshine... Living in the Northwest, we rarely get to see the sun during winter/spring. I will have a booth at the Creating Keepsakes Convention in Mesa, Arizona on May 17th & 18th. I am bringing my 12 year old son to help me out so it should be alot of fun. Please stop by our booth #96!

Ribbon Ring booth in Salt Lake City - Great American Scrapbook Expo

Here is my Ribbon Ring booth in Salt Lake City a few weeks ago. I had tons of people try to buy my cupcake holder, ribbon topiaries and ribbon rings (full of ribbon).

Sorry the pic is so dark. In person, it is very bright, pink and glittery!!!!

The clear paint cans are each full of book rings in different sizes. At our next show in Mesa, Arizona I am adding three additional book ring sizes.

Ribbon Ring sequin truffle & cupcakes

Here is a close-up of my ribbon cupcake.

So easy to make. The picture doesn't do it justice. In-person, you just want to hug it.

And the sequin truffle. This thing is terribly cute. Seriously.
