If you’re anything like me, then you certainly have spare bits and pieces of ribbons at home that you might be thinking to use for years. Well, it’s time to bring out those and combine them with a few craft supplies to create an inspirational work of art.

Although the first thing that comes to your mind is gift wrapping, there are endless possibilities to reuse those leftover supplies and turn them into fascinating accessories, chandeliers, or even wall art. Crafting with ribbons is a brilliant idea because they are so versatile and can be folded or twisted into any shape and style, no matter what the occasion.

I have been working with ribbon crafts for a while and keeping my eyes on amazing DIY ideas that everyone will adore. In this post, I have put together my favourite ribbon crafts that will definitely elevate your love for crafting. Let’s get started!

1. Ribbon Flowers

Well, we all get cheered up with beautiful flowers, isn’t it? Just take colourful strips of fabric and buttons and turn them into easy-to-make ribbon flowers without any hassle. You can use them as headbands, bags, and magnets. It is a great idea to spend craft time with your kids and create precious memories while having your brunch.

2. Ribbon Wreath

Everyone loves seeing a pretty wreath hanging on the door, especially during the holiday and winter season. You can also use flowers and deco mesh ribbons to make a wreath perfect for spring or summer. Even all the family members can help assemble this craft idea for little fun moments.

3. Tassel Keychain

Tassels are around everywhere at this moment. You can use those leftover ribbon pieces in this craft that you never wanted to throw away. Simply attach the strands to a metal ring and you will have an adorable keychain that you can use in your purse or any accessory.

4. Ribbon Hair Bow

Hair bows look awesome on a little girl at any time of the year. You can make a heart-shaped hair bow with red and pink ribbons for Valentine’s Day or turn them into any shape suitable for the occasion. It is an excellent idea to add a pop of colour and personalization to the entire look.

5. Floral Wall Hanging

If you’re a craft enthusiast and really adores delicate and detailed projects, then you should definitely give floral wall hanging a try. You can gather satin ribbon in floral prints, exciting styles, and colours alongside cute little flowers to make a pleasing wall hanging.

6. Sensory Toys for Babies

When my kids were little, they would get their fingers into anything within their reach. While I love to see them exploring and learning different things, I was paranoid that they would get into some trouble. That’s when DIY ribbon toys came into my mind and I picked strips and fancy colors to create cool toys like ribbon wands and pull toys that are educational and safe at the same time.

7. Sunglasses Storage and Display Organizer

You can make functional storage and stylish appeal for your glasses in a couple of minutes. Simply attach a piece of fabric to the back of a wooden frame, then secure a ribbon using hot glue and put your sunglasses and other display pieces. Sounds amazing, right?

8. Ribbon Chandelier

If you have an old lampshade, then you can reuse it to make a fascinating ribbon chandelier. You can use shades like purple, white and pink or whatever colour combination you like for a bridal shower or wedding décor. A fancy DIY chandelier will capture the attention of all guests on special occasions.

9. Handmade Bracelet

Handmade pieces of jewellery are so precious that can be preserved for generations. You can channel your inner creativity to create a gorgeous bracelet using wire, ribbon, and beads. When it is ready, you couldn’t stop showing it to your friends and it can be a personalized gift as well.

10. Button Elastic Bookmarks

If you’re investing your time and efforts to make something right from scratch at home, you should probably create something practical for daily purposes. In that case, you can pick ribbon, heart buttons, and small hair ties to make stretchy bookmarks that will bring extra charm to your novel.

Time to Add a Whimsy Touch to Your Crafting Nook
