Treat Your Ribbon Right

May 12, 2008 · Filed Under Products and Supplies · Comment

What happens to ribbon when it arrives in your studio? Here are four options.

Add it to a dowel so it’s immediately usable

Toss it into a container with the other ribbon

Leave it in the bag or box until it’s needed

Forget it’s available until it’s too old to sell

Ribbon wastes your money if it’s not coordinated and ready for placement either on a gift box or fashioned into a bow for a basket, as you see displayed in the ribbon section of this site. That’s what happened to ribbon in the picture on the Gift Basket Design Studio Extreme Makeover page.

When ribbon arrives in your workspace, whether in a delivered box or carried by you from a warehouse, add it to your design area right away.

Treat your ribbon right, and it will reward you with sales and smiles from happy customers.
