fun with patterned ribbon

Dress up your packages with some pretty patterned ribbon.  Ribbons with detail as fine as these give such a personal touch to a gift and will very likely get reused and remembered.  Or, if you're the crafty type and looking for a homemade gift idea, the thicker ribbons would also make a great belt pattern!  Lucky for us, J Caroline Creative also has a how-to section on her website.
