Ribbons for sale!

They say that variety is the spice of life.  And so, I had another great idea to make those braided ribbon barrettes that were popular back in the 80's, and bead them with the plastic tri-beads that everyone always wanted... or at least they did at my school!

My mom is not crafty at all, so I had to rely my friends' moms to make them for me.  Deprived much?  Over-compensating?  Perhaps.  But here's a listing to prove it... 25 yds of 1/8 inch, double sided satin ribbon, your choice of colors, in 1 yd increments. 

If I did my math right, that should come out to 9 cents a foot... which is better than wholesale and in manageable quantities.  This ribbon is really versatile- use it to wrap your goodies, thread beads, accent other pieces, or even as a draw string... trust me, I can think of at least a hundred different ways to use this ribbon.  I just don't have the time to do it all!!
Please, take my ribbon!!!
