Ribbon Details: With Projects and Instructions for Decorating With Ribbons, Used [Hardcover]

Little things mean so much. Add a little trim to bed linens, tuck a simply-tied ribbon rose at the base of a cake, wrap sheer ribbon around a flower vase: these are just a few of the clever ideas offered by author Mary Norden to personalize your space and show others that you care. Illustrated with colorfully evocative photographs, Ribbon Details includes eight step-by-step projects, demonstrates five classic bow styles, and displays hundreds of ideas, colors and types of ribbon-from frothy sheers and plush velvets to ingenious wire-edge and fanciful tassels. From trimming bed linen and hanging pictures to creating attractive table settings, there are innumerable ways of decorating with ribbons. Novel window dressings, ribbon tassels, unusual gift wrapping and beautiful decorations for cakes and flowers are just some of the many inspirational ideas included in this delightful little book. The first chapter Ribbons in the Home has ideas for using ribbons all around the home, including trimming lampshades and curtains. Ribbons for Festive Occasions is full of inspirations for using ribbons for celebrations, including table and chair swags, bow wreaths and cake decorations. Finally, Ribbons and Flowers covers posies and buttonholes.
