Ribbons to Roses

I like to make things when I'm bored. I believe I was in a math class and needed some way to keep myself from falling asleep so I came up with a way to make paper roses out of those long notebook pieces that are left over from tearing a sheet out. I started making them like crazy until I realized they'd be much prettier if they were made out of a different material. That's when I started making them out of ribbon. I think they're really fun and easy to make. I've stuck them on headbands, glued them to rings, used them to decorate gift wrap, put them on chains to use as necklaces, made miniature ones and sewed them together as a bracelet.. just about everything. You can also make them out of cloth, tissue paper, whatever works!
