Grosgrain ribbon delights my heart… I’m not sure why, it just does. Using grosgrain ribbon to make ribbon ruffles, then, is a guarentee for many, many moments of delight. Especially when I use these little lovelies as the adornament on my ballet flats and see them each time I look down!
To make a grosgrain ribbon ruffle yourself, you’ll need:
-8 inch piece of grosgrain ribbon
-embroidery thread in matching color
-brad or button for the center
1. cut 8 inches of ribbon and 12 inches of thread
2. sew a simple stitch along one edge of the ribbon
3. once you are finished stiching the length of the ribbon, grab both ends of the thread and pull taught creating a circle. tie a knot in the end.
4. use remaining thread to sew both ends together
5. turn over so that the seam is on the back side and put a brad through the middle
6. use to adorn all sorts of things; hair pins, dresses, purses, boutaniers, shoes, cards etc. let the grosgrain delight your heart. 🙂

Very cute. Of course my thoughts always run towards home decor, and I think those would be adorable on a lamp for a girl's bedroom.
