  1. I prefer narrow ribbon because I could then make bows to match. Thanks for the chance :)

  2. I really like at least 5/8" ribbon. Wider can make such a beautiful statement on a package or card! A big gorgeous bow! I have a ton of skinny ribbon, it tends to get passed by for a wider one.
    Kindest regards,

  3. These are very beautiful projects in the hop. So very stunning and amazing. Plus my favorite color. Blue. I normally use narrow ribbon. 1/8 to 5/8 but 1/4 is what I use the most.

  4. i love all ribbon any kind but i do tend to reach for more narrow ribbon for some reason as i think it works beautifully for making little bows and adding dimension to punched borders xx

  5. Gorgeous gorgeous projects all throughout the hop, and love the assortment this month!

    Hrmm... most used ribbon width hey... Good question!! I rarely go bigger than 1" but I don't like the narrow narrow ones either...

    I think what I use the most would have to be 1/2" :)

    Thanks for another great hop everyone :)

  9. 5/8 is my go to size, but I am wanting to pick up some of the wider striped grosgrain, like 1 1/2". Thanks for the fun!

    ReplyDelete
  10. I tend to go for narrow ones depending on the project. The narrow ones are perfect for textured trim and to create bows in buttons. Thanks for,the chance to win!

  21. Thank you again ladies for chance to win and sharing your projects :) I tend to use medium to wide , I'm not great at measuring ... Mostly guess (",) .. Lol :)

  22. I have some wide ribbons that I NEVER use ... thinner ones are easier to work with, and I'm seriously lovin my bakers twine!

    ReplyDelete
  23. I typically use the narrow ribbons, from 1/8 inch up to half an inch. The wide ribbons look really dramatic and impressive on other people's projects however (I probably need to give them a try).

    ReplyDelete
  24. I usually use 1/8 or 1/4 inch, but it really depends on what the project is. Last Christmas I used several different ribbons that were 1 inch wide on my projects.

    ReplyDelete
  25. I use the narrow ribbons but for vintage cards I like a wider silk ribbon.

    ReplyDelete
  26. I tend towards 3/8" or smaller for most of my ribbon.

    ReplyDelete

  28. Bonnie,

    I like 3/8 the best, just the perfect size.

  29. 5/8ths is the most common, but I'm definitely not averse to using 1" ribbon either. :) Anything too thin, though, and it's a pain to try to find an adhesive for.

    Enjoyed the hop. Thanks!

  30. The projects of the DTs are so fantastic. Great job, girls.

    I prefer 3/8 and 5/8 ribbons for my projects.

  31. HI; I have visited all the talented ladies and seen one splendid project after the other!!!

    Size of ribbons?? Well I don't really measure them and never in inches (live in Sweden so we use the metric system) but I tend to use middle-size ribbons; not the very wide ones, not the narrowest ones (they are hard to get to stick in the paper) - the size on the majority of the ribbons in this months kit!

  33. Another great blog hop. The projects the DT created were fabulous. This ribbon assortment is beautiful. Blue is my favorite color.

    I usually use alot of 5/8 ribbon for cards, but I do love larger ribbon for scrapbook layouts...

    ReplyDelete
  34. Very fun hop--lots of great ideas and blue is one of my favorite colors. I tend to use 3/8 inch ribbon the most.

    ReplyDelete
  35. I enjoyed the blog hop! I tend to reach for 3/8 or 5/8 ribbon first. I'm trying to use more wide (1- 1 1/2), but it's more of a challenge for me.

    ReplyDelete
  36. i like 3/8 ribbon.. or close to that.. its just easier to work with for my type of projects.
