Scrappy Ribbon Garland

A few weeks ago, I sold some bows in a consignment sale.  I displayed them on white pegboard, and I knew it would look orderly and colorful, but I still felt the need to punch up the display.


If you know me, you know my favorite kinds of crafts are simple and not time-consuming.  I also love using what I have on hand whenever possible!  I had a ton of ribbon scraps left over from making the bows, so I got a pile out and started sewing.  It's that easy - just keep feeding scraps through your presser foot until your garland is the length you want!


Stitch a length of ribbon at each end to string it up and you're done!


If you're not the DIY-type, I also have these available in my shop.
