Wouldn’t it be great to have a dinner party where you did all the decorations with ribbon scraps!

No dinner party is complete without decorations to match the theme. Whether it be casual or formal, here are some great ways to not only use your ribbons but also to throw the party of the year! And think of the endless possibilities for those decorations!

Starting with decorations for the dinner table, what about creating wine tags from ribbons? You can also tie ribbons around glass stems or around the base of a glass to make a unique look. You can match the color specifically to your theme. Or, make them all different colors for each guest attending.

Decorate your place settings with pretty ribbon scraps wrapped around the napkins or silverware. Custom ribbon rolls are perfect for this idea! Choose ribbons with specific dates or sayings on them to match the rest of your decor.

Another great idea is to use ribbon scraps to create special and unique invitation cards!

Simply glue them onto a themed card to invite all of your guests. Creative cards are sure to secure that your invitations get noticed! And, they are an excellent way to make a guest feel special and want to attend your social event.

Once your guests arrive, make sure they feel wanted with a quick gift for them. Your ribbon scraps can be used to decorate little bags or boxes with a thank you gift. Or tie a ribbon around something that matches your theme that each guest can take home with them.

Don’t forget the decorations around the room! From ribbon curtains to creative lampshades decorated with your ribbons, these ideas are endless.

Satin and acetate ribbons are perfect for flowers and gifts. Tying bows is simple and they hold well. Tie them around your bouquets for that great looking bow. They hold their shape will so that the bow’s loops remain plush and open. These ribbons are also useful for decorating because of their shiny quality. They work great when hung with other decorations or used on centerpieces for tables.

Grosgrain
(This ribbon) is heavily textured on both sides. Consequently, the imprinting will have lines running through it where the color of the ribbon will show through. This can lead to a more casual or “distressed” look in the final ribbon. (And,) the material itself is slightly thicker and heavier than (other ribbons).

Chiffon – Organza
(This ribbon choice) has an open, mesh-like weave that allows you to see through it. Because of this transparency, …organza has a very elegant look, making it a popular choice for weddings or other formal events. It has a stiff texture that works well for almost any size bow.

Whatever you decide to use for your decorating, make sure that your imprinting choices match your ribbon choice. Printing on satin versus grosgrain, and even organza, will always show up differently. Watch your text and image choices when selecting your ribbons.
