Ribbon - Premium Wire Edge Single-faced Satin - 63mm - Gold

Ordinary ribbon goes limp. Wired ribbon doesn’t. The fine wire in each edge lets you curve a loop, fan out a tail or shape a swag, and it stays that way, so your work looks crisp and professional instead of tired by the time the party starts.

It’s a premium satin with a glossy front, and at 63mm it’s wide enough to make a full, confident bow that you can see from across the room. The shiny side is the right side, and the back is plainer, so it’s worth planning where the front will show. It’s made from polyester, so it keeps its colour and its shape.

What to make

• Gift wrapping: big bows and toppers for parcels, boxes and hampers
• Decorating: bows for chairs, doors, stair rails and party tables
• Wreath making: loops, tails and swags worked into greenery
• Cake decorating: a ribbon around the cake board or the base of a cake
• General crafts: cards, hair bows, favours and handmade gifts

Tips for working with wired ribbon

• Show the shiny satin side on the front of your bow
• Cut the ends at an angle or into a V for a neat finish
• Shape the loops by hand, and pull the wire gently to adjust the curve
• Use floristry wire or a pipe cleaner to hold the bow, and keep the ribbon’s own wire for shaping
• Store it flat so the wire doesn’t kink
