Lutz, they look perfect!

 

[skes2002]

[ryomat]

Just catching up on this thread and see everyone's amazing DIY skills (which I have to say go well beyond my own).

AMAZEHEAD! lol! Jadeite - so crafty - it's cute!!

Eulalia - this is absolutely adorable. I can't believe you didn't have to glue the ribbon. Love that you have a matching button with contrast "stitching" Wow!

Diva999 - thanks - I may have provided the idea but you gave it it's official name!! Love the rubberband-less way! I like your way even better as you don't have to stitch in the back. I do have mean skills with rubber bands, though! .

Way cool CB!!!!! Did you make the balls from each end of the ribbon? I love this!!! I'm going to try this!

Lutz - yours turned out great too - so perfectly round! AMAZEBALLS 'round the world!


Wow - everyone is so talented! I can't wait to see others AMAZEBALLS and AMAZESTARS. Anyway, we ought to have a contest to see who can come up with the most creative use of bolduc or a scarf box, bag or something you might otherwise not use again. That would be fun!!

 

[CobaltBlu]

Paulliac, yes, i used a really long ribbon. To end each ball, I left the last wrap loose and wove the ribbon through it to make a faux knot and pulled it really tight. I am not sure it will really hold if I use it as a daily keychain, but I am going to put my mailbox keys on it. I wish I had a better ring for it, I am going to get one from ACE when I go to town.

 

[Diva999]

Pauillac-That's sweet of you to say but your the AMAZEBALLS!!
Think of the smiles you have brought all around the world with your idea!!!

I went into Hermes today to look at something my SA found (wasn't the right color). Anyway, she was studying my AMAZEBALL and said "how cute you are - reusing your ribbon like that". I smiled enigmatically and thought to myself "probably won't be the last time you see one of these either"!

Lutz, lovely amazeballs!

 

[IceEarl]

oh ok... i have no talents at all, I have been playing with the ribbons for about half an hour now and it looks more like a triangle Chinese rice dumpling ...lol... just can't get it to form like a ball, the ribbon keeps getting loose.... .... I shall keep trying

Ladies thanks for the great idea ...

Ok, so here is my feeble attempt at making one Amazeball, lol...it´s not secured yet, still have to work on how to best tie it Although it´s not perfectly round, it really was made by me, lol!

Kat, this looks amazing your your beautiful bag! BTW, I forgot to respond to you in LTC's amazing size of kelly thread - Coleigh's post in ode to kelly actually had the link, to credit goes to Coleigh for pulling it up. I am constantly amazed at how wonderful fellow tpfers memories and abilities re pulling up threads are.

 

[Eulalia]

Eulalia - this is stunning, you are so clever!

I suppose you could attach this to another piece of ribbon and tie around your neck like a choker!

I attached a safety pin to my flower and have used it as a brooch in my winter coat. I think it looks quite nice with a brown or orange scarf.

 

[lovely64]

Thanks dear 880! Oh, don´t worry about the non-response! At least you remembered it, that may be more than what I´d have done had it been me, lol
