Description:

I wanted to make this a quick swap & then for the next one we'll do something creative with all of our ribbon!

Its fairly simple - 5 pieces of ribbon to each of 2 partners. Each piece must be at least 15" long. Here are the pieces to send:

  • ribbon with words on it (can be stamped on, if you know how to do this)
  • ribbon with more than 2 colors on it
  • ribbon that is more than 1" wide
  • ribbon that is textured (not satin or smooth)
  • sticky ribbon** OR any fiber other than string

If you can't find sticky ribbon, you can make it yourself by applying "Tacky Tape" (the double-sided tape with the red backing found in the adhesives section of your craft store), or other double-sided tape. (Thanks @swiftbrooks for the idea!)

Sender's choice, as long as they are the pieces above. Open to all group members in good standing with no 1's or 3's in the last 4 months. PM me with any questions!

I have everything except the sticky ribbon. What area is that in -in a craft store?

@leecytx - its usually on really small spools. At Michaels, I've seen it in the ribbon aisle. I think its actually called "Sticky Ribbon". I think you can sometimes find it in the $ section too. If its a problem with others too, I'll edit the swap :)

Sticky ribbon is not possible to get here at a reasonable price =( Please send a message to me if the swap is changed =)

I can't find the sticky ribbon either. Please send me a message if the swap changes. Thank you.

If you have a Hobby Lobby store, they sell sticky ribbon in the scrapbooking section with the small spools of scrapbooking ribbon. Couldn't we make our own sticky ribbon with red line tape on the back?

Thanks, @swiftbrooks I was trying to think of a way to make our own, so of course you can! I'll edit the swap to say so :)
