What would you do with THREE POUNDS of scrap ribbon (you don’t have to use all of it):
I’ve come up with a few ways:
I have tons of scrap ribbon, but when Strano Designs sent me a huge box stuff with new scraps I almost died and went to heaven. I want to share their generosity with you…..
If you don’t want to wait for the giveaway results Strano Designs sells scrap packs on their site!

Three Pounder Scrap Ribbon Giveaway!!!
The winner of the giveaway is Julie! Congrats Julie! Can’t wait to see what you make with all that ribbon!

































There are so many things I'd like to make with 3lbs of scrap ribbon! Hair accessories, I'd like to try your tutorials of course, and use it to trim the burp cloths I make
I follow your blog too
I hope I win, I never win anything!
Awesome giveaway Ash!! You know how much I love ribbon. Count me in!! Crossing my fingers
If I had that scrap ribbon, I would make bracelets out of it, alternating ribbon sections with peyote stitch of the same width in a contrasting/complimentary color and pattern. With enough ribbon, an extra duplicate length used for the bracelet would be sewn onto a handbag to customize and coordinate with the bracelet.

I love scrap ribbon!!!!!! and 3 lbs is like a dream! i would make little hair accesories, try your tutorials when i get my sewing machine for christmas woohoo! or do arts and crafts with my daughter allie!…. I follow your blog, and im a fan of your facebook :]
hmm, what to do with the ribbon. I'd probably use it to make cards, add to baby toys, try some of your ribbon scrap tutorials of course!!! What fun!
I'm already a follower! yay!
Okay, I'm not stalking you, I just joined your facebook page.
I'd make a touch and feel baby book like this one http://homegrownhappy.blogspot.com/2009/10/babys-soft-book-of-colors.html with the scrap ribbon. I follow your blog.
Continue to embellish my 9 yo daughter's jeans, like I do with the bags of ribbon scraps I buy at Hobby Lobby. I think we'd add a few hair accessories, too.
monicawalkAThotmailDOTcom
There are SO many possibilities!! A few things would include your tutorials, using it in some baby board book scrapbooks, hair accessories, and many other projects!!
First thing that would happen at our house: ribbons would be dumped on the floor. We'd turn on the music and my two girls would grab some ribbon and twirl around & around. Once we've cleaned up, I'm thinking cut ribbon trim along the bottom of twirly skirts or a patchwork tree advent calendar or a plain tree with ribbon ornaments w/buttons to hang on it…hmm, juices are flowing.
I would make hair clippies for my daughter! LOVE THEM!
I follow your blog!
I follow you on facebook now!
I would make appliques where i could use some scraps I am already your fan on facebook (Yuliya Y is my real name with a lot of Ye in the last name and also I do follow your blog for awhile!Hope to win!!!! I would use those somehow especially i would love to try to make the wallet with them!
oh i love ribbon!! I'd make some hair clips, a ribbon christmas tree, I wanna try that ribbon wallet… and maybe roll around in some of it
hahahaha
I've had my eye on that ribbon wallet thing for days! I really want to make it but I don't have cute scrap ribbon! I'd probably do hair clips for myself as well.
rachael@forwardanimation.com
I would wrap a cheap little dollar store headband in all those ribbons, hot glueing along the way. Then I would glue together a long strip of ribbons and twist it all up and make a ribbon rosette to put on my ribbon covered headband. Easy peasy and cute too boot!
totally use it for making hairbows. I've got a new little bald head to adorn!
annemolino at hotmail dot com
I've been itching to make a taggie blanket. This would be perfect!
I'd then probably make some hair bows too

OH MY GOODNESS!! You have no idea how bad I need ribbon. Ever since the tutorial for the ribbon wallet I have wanted to make it but sadly don't have much ribbon scraps. So I would make the ribbon wallet, and a belt, and make my baby daughter a ribbon blanket!!!
I also became a facebook fan
Second Facebook fan chance!
ooh this made me giddy just thinking about all the possibilities!
oh boy, 3 lbs would do a LOT. tag blankets, toys, decorate pants, christmas ornaments, stockings, i really want to make a belt for myself and of course my 2 girls, jewelry, hot pan holders, pillows, i could go on and on and on!
I, of course, would try your wallet and also use them to embellish lots of notebook covers, doll quilts and oh so many other things.

If I had that much ribbon I would make some sweet headbands for sure. I am in college and all the girls just want a way to throw their hair up and have it look good. I would also use the ribbon to make awesome purse straps. I love purses. I could probably find a million things to do with it if I had it.. oh the possibilities…
Great idea !
congratulations to whoever wins !
I am making a ton of tulle skirts for the Princess Alexa Foundation (this foundation gives dress up costumes to terminally ill children). I would use the ribbon to embellish the skirts!
Thanks for the chance to win-

Awesome! Just in time too! I am just finishing up the planning and sketching process of my new line of children's necklaces. I can definitely use these!
If I won, I would weave it, then sew it into a shape, like a neck tie or something and then sew it to a kids shirt or onesie. OR I would try the great tutorials you have:) I don't have very much scrap ribbon and could have a hay day with three pounds! Wahoo:)

Well!! I've already made the scrap ribbon belt as a Christmas gift for my little sister. And I made the scrap ribbon camera strap cover as a Christmas gift for my step mom (how cute! they'll be matching!!). I'm thinking of making the wallet for my daughter, and I'm making 2 more belts one for my 4 year old son (cause he just has to have the stuff the girls have) and for my 18 month old cousin for a Christmas gift.
But I suppose that there are a few more tutorials that I can do too!
I joined your FB group! Cute!
Ever since I saw your ribbon belt I've been dying to get my hands on a bunch of ribbon. I like the wallet too and how about some hair bands!?
My husband will die and my daughter will bounce with glee if I won this.

Alas, I have no printer, so am hoping my husbeast will print it from his office. All 26 pages… Anyways, have a very fun craft planned with me 2 older girls (4.5 and 2.5). We are making felt gingerbread ladies and the scraps would be awesome decorations (frosting, skirts, etc.)Please pick me!
Ooh – I so want this!! Not too sure what I'd do with the scrap ribbon? Maybe try making some bows for Leila?! I'm sure once I stared at it long enough some creative ideas would start flowing!
I'm on your FB fan page now!
Well, I never would have suspected that a big bag of ribbon would be so fun. Whatever I make, I know it will be inspired by one of your designs!

I love your scrap wallets, I also have been wanting to try my hand at making some cute (but simple) hair clips for my daughter. She tends to pull them out and lose them so I don't want to spend a ton of money on supplies, so scrap ribbon would be awesome!
I have some watch faces laying around waiting for some ribbon to make bands with!
Oh…and of course a ribbon clutch!
Oh, and I am of course a follower of your amazing blog – I always seem to find inspiration on your pages.

Hmmmmm…3lbs of scrap ribbon! Oh, the possibilities are endless! Hair bows, edging on curtains, garlands, scrapbook embellishments….now, I just need to learn to sew. HA!
I follow your blog via RSS feed. Thanks!

Oh golly…LOVE ribbon. Besides fabric, it is my absolute FAVORITE!
We are living in Korea for 2 years & I had to bring my own stash. Would LOVE to have such creative possibilities. Definitely, I would make hair bows for the girls & I absolutely want to try your camera strap idea. Hmmm…scrapbooking too! I'm sure I can come up with lots of things to use such a delightful load of ribbon for!!!
Be still my heart! I would make ribbon trees! (And hair bows for my Eleanor, of course.)
Ribbon trees: Take a cone-shaped styrofoam piece and pin like-colored ribbon strips around the base. They should be in three inch lengths or so folded in half with the cut end up. Cover that row with another row going all the way up to the top. Top with a bow, flower, medallion or such. So cute! I will show you pictures if I win.

What would I do with 3 lbs of cute ribbon? The question is what WOULDN'T I do? I see some hair bows, a ribbon topiary, ribbon wreath, ribbon tree, hanging a wreath and some cute shirts/skirts dresssed up with ribbon. I would LOVE THE ribbon!
I follow you!
I would make lots and lots of tag blankets! I would also make covered hair clips for my daughter. How fun!
I would use it to make the family brag books. Everyone would get one!
I would start crafting next years Christmas gifts using them to embellish notebooks, t-shirts, jeans, shorts, shoes, wreaths, hair barrettes, necklaces, pillows, bookmarks, photo book and anything else I could think of.
I would pull them all out and stare at their loveliness many times and then before I started each new craft, I would think to myself, "hmm, how can I incorporate my lovely ribbon into this project?"
also, if you needed more incentive to randomly chose me, my birthday is this week!
Oh i would make one of those or several camera straps!!!! Remember I contacted you on etsy about them? I also follow you on Facebook!!!!! I would love to win!!!! Pick me pick me!!!!!
I would make hair bows for my daughter. Also, I would make ribbon key chain wristlet. I would love to make a ribbon clutch. I love making firecracker bows…they are my fav…thanks for the great giveaway!
leahforlove@aol.com
Oh my, what not to do! I would definitely create some hair bows for my little girl, put together some baby toys, and definitely put create a camera strap with your tutorial…oh the possibilities! Thanks for sharing with us all and have a beautiful day!
I would use it for baby tag blankets and plushies. Thanks!
I use scrap ribbon right now to make ribbon tag blankets and hair clips. I would love to try out the scrap ribbon belt!
I would use the ribbon for hair clips and to try and make a ball toy for my little one.
I am a follower too!
Where to start……I would make a scrap garland for my little girl's room, cover a lamp shade, make hair accessories, use it in my applique designs, belt, the possibilities are endless!
I would put it in a nice clear jar and take it out and look at it every so oftene and get my creative juices flowing unitl I had more than 2 minutes to craft…
I would make all kinds of hair doodads.
I would LOVE a big bag of ribbon. SO many possibilities. I have been wanting to make pennant garlands for every season . . . ribbons would help with all the embellishing details that would make something commonplace much more creative and unique! I also have a 2 year old daughter. I'm sure she would come up with a thousand uses the moment she gets her hands on them.
I'm a follower as well.
Love the tutorials you've posted.
I'd trim burp cloths and make some bows for my girls.
And I'm now a fan of your facebook page!
what a great prize. i know for sure what i would do… and that would be the ribbon wallet and belt.
i'm waiting for the holiday break to try and recreate that!
i would make another count down to christmas. i used christmas paper to make cute origami envelopes, placed paper cards inside with a verse to read each morning. each of the cards has three or four ribbions tied to the top. SUPER CUTE and the kids can see how close we are getting to christmas.
i follow your blog!
I would make a few of those ribbon christmas tree applique t-shirts and probably add some ribbons to some of my daughter's jeans and skirts…so many possibilites!!
Thanks for being so giving!! I would LOVE to make either your scrap ribbon belt or wallet. I also loved JOYSHOPE's baby chewers with the scrap ribbon edges. (I know you did those as well) And I would love to share with my beautiful sister, Marta HAUSOFGIRLS for some of her crafts too! Thanks again for sharing!
I love ribbon!!! I could do a million things with these scaps. I would love to make the ribbon wallet and work on some purses with the ribbon.
First, I would make all the tutorials using scrap ribbon on your blog. Then I would make key fobs for all the women in my family, and then since I see all fabric as unpainted canvases so to speak, I would find some clothing to embellish and then make some skirts for my granddaughter to embellish. Whew!
I am addicted to ribbon, so this is perfect (and a bit scary) for me! Ha! I have a great ribbon bookmark idea and would LOVE to use these scraps to make one of those funky, scrappy garlands for my little girl's bedroom. We're learning colors, so what better fun tool to look at and practice!
I'm a follower of your blog!
I just became a fan/follower of your Facebook page (Teresa Tysinger)
First of all, I would like to say that I discovered your blog a few months ago and can hardly wait for each new post. Love it!
I would be so excited to have all that ribbon! I would certainly make the clutch, I would make my daughter some bows, and possibly try to make a crayon cozy with the ribbons for all three of my kids.

I'd go coocoo crazy and cover my house in ribbon! no, serioulsy, I've been dying to try the ribbon clutch tutorial. Also, I have a little girl with wild and crazy hair, so there's a good chance that a ton of that ribbon will go towards hair clips to try to tame her mane!

I would love to try out the wallet tutorial with the scraps!

Oh how cool!
I woke up thinking about making an alternating red and green ribbon necklace (hard to explain) but if that turned out I'd totally use it for some necklaces.
I am DYING to make a "rag scrap" rug!!! And I think 3lbs would get me about 1/2 way there!
I'd braid it together and make tree garland, (wouldn't that be cool???) Depending on how long the strips are….
I'd make lots and lots and lots of stuff…..
You know I am a follower.
I don't do FB though but I can tweet and post about it on my blog… I'll let you know when that happens
I would make a ribbon wreath for my craft room. Thanks.
I follow your blog too. I love it.
I really have a thing for headbands right now so I would probably make a ton of those. I also just made a coupon wallet with scraps so doing a tote with ribbon would be interesting! I love ribbon and I would put it on everything I make, lol.
i would make my sons some t-shirts & onsies with cool designs on the front, like that cool christmas tree one i've come across of other outlines with the ribbon. fish with fins, dinosaurs with plates . . . so many ideas!
i'd also make a camera strap, and some taggie blankies, lanyards, binky holders . . . so many more ideas! hehe
i would order myself some but shipping to canada is $19.95US!
tara@sewtara.com
Wow! That is an awesome bag (or 2) of ribbon! So cool! I would probably make a few tag blankets, and then give your scrap ribbon wallet tutorial a try. so cute!

cunis14[at]hotmail[dot]com
i tweeted about it this morning !!!!
yay for ribbons !!!
I follow your blog!
My daughter and I would go nuts with the ribbon scraps! I bet we'd come up with all kinds of fun crafty ways to use them. Perhaps make a ribbon taggy blankie for my twins! How fun!! *fingers crossed!!*
holy tons of entries, batman! Unsure why I'm even bothering, I'll never win! LOL.
Of course there would be hair accessories made, naturally. I'd probably also try that method where you applique a little person on a shirt with a snap attachment, and the other half goes on a bow and my DD could have matching bows in her hair and on the shirt. <3 I'd probably also try a tiered skirt with scallops and put bows on the um, corners? tops? intersections? of the scallops.
Also, I know that there would be a bunch of ribbon 'stolen' from me by my DD2, who LOVES ribbon, and from my scrapbooking friends. haha.
actually now that I think about it… I would probably also host a hairclip making party. Perhaps even a fundraiser of sorts? Teach everyone how to make them, and then sell them with the profits going to Cornerstone Christian Care, a group that helps arrange care and outings and stuff for special needs kids/adults.
I would use the ribbon to make hair accessories, tag blankets, the ribbon wallet and so much more!
I would make bunches and bunches of taggy blankets for my sweet 5 month old baby, Emmeline. I try and try to get her to be interested in her Baby Einstein toys and all she wants to do is play with and chew on the satin tags.
I would definitely make your scrap ribbon wallet. I want to make it so bad but don't have any scrap ribbon to speak of.
I linked to your give away on my FB status!
I would make tons and tons of taggies, since lost taggies mean no sleep. We need backups!
I followed you on Facebook!
Facebook number 2.
I have lots of projects I want to make for a sweet little girl. Ribbons would be JUST the thing to make them special.
The first one that comes to mind is a dollhouse pillow. And scrap ribbons would be so cute as curtains and bedspreads and table cloths. And even for trim around the outside of the house.
Oh, and shingles on the roof! Amazing!
@sdacmiller RT'd!
Hair clips and def your wallet tut, and the belt tut!
Crossing my fingers!
I follow your blog!
What a fun giveaway! I've been wanting to make your ribbon wallet and I like making tag toys for baby presents.
hair bows, purses, scarves, and little girls clothes . . . this is what I am dreaming of
With that much ribbon, you could make a great ribbon frame for all the ribbon clips….or some baby toys with the loops (my favorites are the dinosaurs)…or just let my kids play in it, I spend so much time telling them to rewind my ribbon spools!
jackidaley at gmail dot com
Just looking at all of that ribbon makes me smile! Currently I'm not thinking too creatively, but I would make hair bows, and birp cloths, for sure. For my sister, I would love to make a message board. I would love to try your belt tutorial, also.
I am a facebook fan, also!
I would make a belt and wallet and put some on ornaments, put some on cards and notecards. I have so many ideas in my head!
Thanks for the giveaway!

I would love to make a ribbon belt for my daughter, she would love it!
I am a happy blog follower, cute ideas!
Wow! What a great giveaway. I really loved the ribbon wallets you made. If I won the ribbon I would make some wallets out of them.
Bytheway, I love looking at your blog and seeing all the things you make. Thanks for inspiring me.

I would just love to have all that ribbon. I love to scrapbook and I like to add ribbon to my pages. Having all that ribbon would make my choices seem almost limit-less! Also my tween got a sewing machine for her b-day so I am sure she could come up with alot of uses for the ribbon also!!!!!
I have been wanting to make your scrap ribbon belt ever since you posted it!!! Amazingly with my obsession with ribbon I have very few scraps so this three pounder bag would really be put to use in my house!!!
I follow you blog!!!!
I'm becoming a fan of your FB page this minute!!!
I joined the facebook page. I already follow you with Google Reader.
Off the top of my head, I would:
Decorate Cookie Mix in a Jar Christmas gifts (ribbon around the lid with recipe card attached)
Make some more baby teething cloths with the ribbon loops around the edges.
Sew them together to make fun placemats.
I would make several things with such a great stash! Clutch Purse, I would sew lots of them together like a string quilt and cut it up to play with the makings of a wall quilt or sashing for another one.
I am now a follower, I enjoy your blog even though I don't have little ones.
I want to try out that wallet tutorial. And make hair bows for boogie. and use some to make cards. and well the list could go on and on LOL!!!
***please let me win!!! Crossing fingers and toes.***

I have been too nervous to try the belt and the wallet but with that many scraps I would try. I like to make tag blankets.
A garland would be nice…for a birthday, for Christmas, for fun…
Hmmm…I wonder if you could make a scrap ribbon tutu or a boy's tie. That would be fun to figure out.
I would make more ribbon taggy monsters: http://lifeon19th.blogspot.com/2009/11/ribbon-taggy-monster.html
I want to make placemats. I would weave the ribbon, place on some fusible webbing, sewing on a backing and then use some more ribbon or binding for the edges. I'd also like to use the same weaved material for the bib portion of a baby doll dress.
And I'm a facebook follower!
I also posted on FB.
I would so make one of your ribbon walllets!
But I have been making more of my hair accessories and could really use ALL of the ribbons to make some new ones that I have been perfecting;)
You can be the ribbon queen and I will be the lace queen! LOL
check out this post & you will get it.

I follow your blog faithfully. Always great ideas. I would love to use the ribbon to make some baby quilt squares with ribbon dangles. Your wallet tutorial would be another one I would try. I also have a large collection of mason jars..I'd love to come up with a decorative use for the combo. The list really could go on and on. Thanks for the inspirations!
I'd for sure try the camera strap tute, or maybe weave the ribbons together and cover a memo book with it.
Oh, and I follow!
Ok!! I blogged with PICS of the things I made, following your tutorials, with Strano Designs scrap ribbon and about the giveaway!!
I also followed!! I can't believe I haven't done that yet!!
Ribbon hair pretties for my almost 2 year old daughter – hope I win!
holy comment love!
Well, I'd start with making lots of fun ribbons for my daughter's hair. She is not recognized unless she has a bow on
Then I'd move on to a ribbon skirt (i saw a fab tutorial on One Pretty Thing that I'm dying to try) and, after that, I'd make some tag lovey blankets…and then keep going with the ideas I guess…maybe i should peruse the prior comments to get some ideas!
i follow your blog!

I have seen a skirt somewhere with different strips of ribbon all over it…. this would be great for that project… Love it! I'm slso gonna become a fan on fb.
I would use it in many different ways. Some craft projects, on cards and some gift wrapping. If it would work I would make some nice burp rags as well.
I would definitely use the scraps for the Christmas presents I am making…which include your belt & wallet tutorials. Thanks!

I have been stashing little bits of ribbon to make your scrappy belt. Otherwise I would make those crinkle toys, or maybe some cute appliques!
Definitely make some cute tag blankets/lovies for my prego friends. I think it would also be fun to embellish homemade stuffed animals

Ribbon is like my go to craft product. I couldn't possibly tell you ONE thing I would do with it because it would be so well spread out! Hair bows, scrapbooking, card making, head bands, bracelets, bibs, ect, ect. My imagination runs wild when I get a new stash of ribbon!

After doing the "swiming with money" throwing it in the air and laughing, I would make alot of taggie blankets, and toys. Most would be donated to the hospital here, and some to friends.

Dear Ashley, you don´t know how much you change my world and so many hope you give me. I´m living in Germany,and I can´t participate for the scraps but I dream that I sew a little twirl skirt for my daughter and many ruffles… something for her hair and a crayon roll.
I find you in google for two months ago, when I was loooking for a free pattern for a t-shirt dress for my little girl.
At this moment I don´t have so much money because I let my work to follow the love so far away, but my little princess give so many love…
thanks a lot for your tutorials and free patterns.
you inspire me and give me hope.
God bless you and your family!

I would swim in all that ribbon! That is a lot of ribbon!
I'd make tag blankets, balls & blocks for our family's crop of baby boys this year. And cute hair stuff for my daughter & nieces!
I think I am commenting under my husband's name, but I'd tie them on white christmas lights and hang them in my little girl's room!
I would so copy your ideas – and I love to make eyeglass cases from scraps of ribbon too! They are also cute for hairbows for my girls dolls!
I have wanted to make that belt the first time I saw your post about it! It's just too cute! I also wanted to let you know I became a fan on facebook and I have been a follower on google reader. I just look so forward to all of your posts. Thanks for the chance to win!

I've always wanted to start learning how to make bows. (Sorry not a very creative idea!) I also LOVE your scrap ribbon belt so I'll have to give that a try.
I am also a follower!
I have dying to make one of those belts like you did. I love all of your wonderfuls crafts. Iwould share the ribbon with a friend!
ooooo!
The items you've posted tutorials to, of course.
I'd make a ribbon version of the man's dress tie skirt for my daughter
Hair bows
Taggie Blanket
I've been mulling around the idea of sewing a bunch together into one BIG LONG RIBBON and then knitting it into a scarf or hat. Maybe a newsboy style hat?
Weave it into small quilt blocks, use adhesive spray and back it with a neutral material to intersperse into a quilt.
Trim homemade thank you cards.
Wrap a gift in brown butcher paper and top with a huge fancy bow made from the ribbon.
Oh man! Now I really want to win!!!

I make a lot of baby gifts, so I am thinking of taggie blankets, taggie toys, etc. And a just entered the world of "altering", so I'm sure they'd come in handy with that too!

Oooh, I love ribbon!!!!
I would use some of it for my own sewing projects and donate the rest to the Refugee Sewing Society so they could make more things to earn money for their families.
I want to make some hair accessories, and Im dying to try a wallet and a camera strap cover.
Im a facebook fan!
And I follow your blog in my google RSS reader! Love your site!
I would make zipper pouches for everyone I know!
I would take the ribbon and dump it on the floor and take a picture of my 1-year-old rolling around in it (while trying to think of an awesome project to do the next day).
I would love to try using ribbon for a mural on my daughter's wall. This would be awesome!
I would most likely make a belt or hair bows

My other idea is to make some stockings like these:
http://brokenpopsiclesticksblog.blogspot.com/2009/12/stocking-christmas-presents.html
with the front being woven ribbon…how cute!?!
I would definitely make some tag monster dolls, or tag chickens, both actually… and bunches of other, yet-to-be decided goodies.
I'm a facebook fan!
I would make cuffs, purses, cards and whatever else I can. I like to take scrap fabric and make crazy quilts to cut my patterns out of, but ribbon wouldn't need a finished edge. Score!

Whoohoo! I can't wait to use it! Oh– the possibilities!
