Ribbon Mats

Ribbon Mats

I got the idea for these from a Mary Engelbreit Book called Crafts to Decorate Your Home.

They were fairly easy to make, and it was fun to pick out all the matching ribbon. =)

In the book, they were supposed to be table mats, but I think you can use them to set in your room or desk. I think they ended up being about $4.00 a piece (I did get the ribbon on sale).

Basically, I wove the ribbon and tacked it to the side of a cardboard box. Then, I pinned felt on for backing and sewed up the edges. It is what ever you want to do from there; ribbon, lace, buttons, etc. =)

Hopefully, I will make a youtube video soon about how to make them.
