Sample Sale March 7th

This winter, the studio makeover it has been what helped me the most to stay inspired, despite so many white skies and snowy days. I have never seen so much snow in my life! While we wait for spring to arrive in Boston, we rearranged the cotton ribbon spools by the color, designed new shelves and a costom made ladder, painted the studio head to toe in white and two small black chalkboard walls, add some lettering by amazing studio assistant Rebecca Cahan and printed lots of adhesive labels to rebrand the cotton ribbon collection. We are ready for a new season! The Sample Sale is this Saturday, March 7th from 11 to 4, come and let us know what you think!

Metallic Loose weave ribbon

Today lots of studio news! The new line of Loose weave cotton ribbon woven with gold thread is ready and in stock on our shelfs. During last spring, we launched the natural cotton and metallic ribbon, but the result was so lovely that I was immediately inspired to add more. Possibilities now seems endless... For this fall I designed six new colors ribbon, as Red + Gold, Chartreuse + Gold, Fuchsia + Gold, Peacock + Gold, Sage + Gold and Gravel + Gold (my favorite). New also in the studio, tiny pairs of Crane Scissors, packaged by hand in our studio. As my other line of Ribbon Scissors, I found these embroidery scissors in a notions shop in Rome and loved them so much that I tracked down the manufacturer in Italy in order to bring them to you. They have a lovely shape, with golden handles and the sharp blades are the beak of the crane. Love to keep them on hand on my desk! For more wrapping, we added a Red and Gold line cotton ribbon in the 2/8" width. Imagine how cool it can be for styling an Indian wedding too! To celebrate, we are offering free shipping, wholesale, domestic orders, only, for orders placed between today October 8th through the end of the day Monday, October 13th. The Wholesale Catalogue 2014 has been updated with new products and any feedback or questions are always welcome. Let me know what you think, I'm happy to hear from you!

Attention to details

What a beautiful wedding! I was so happily surprised when the mother of the bride sent me these images of how she used the Metallic cotton ribbon on the wedding favors. The full wedding is posted on Style Me Pretty and I'm honored to be part of this amazing wedding with just a spark of silver on the table! Photos by Acres of Hope Photography.

Wrapping and styling 2013

Every year, I look forward to the moment that I open up my folder where I store a collection of different uses of Cotton Ribbons and Twine by other designers. I'm always flattered when I spot a spool of twine on one of your desks, when I see the cotton ribbons put to good use by a designer I really admire, or simply as a prop on some of your photos. It is what keeps me inspired to continue to offer high quality products, and to work closely with all of you on your projects. Below, is a small selection of some of the images that I hope you will enjoy. Please feel free to post your own images that include the use of Cotton Ribbons or any of my supplies on the facebook page, if I'm missing any of you on this long list. I would love to see them! I also created a Wrapping board on Pinterest where more ideas can be viewed for the holidays' gift wrapping season. We are offering free shipping on the online shop for domestic orders, until December 22nd. Please note, that the studio will be closed from December 23rd to January 9th. Thank you so much to all of your creativity and inspiration through the year!
