• SATIN RIBBON •
Double-faced satin ribbon means it’s smooth and shiny on both sides of the ribbon.
Satin ribbon is available in 7/8″ or 1.5″ widths, sold on 50-yard spools. 100% Polyester.
• DUPIONI SILK RIBBON •
Dupioni Silk makes an elegant, modern statement; featuring jewel-toned shades of soft, shimmering ribbon with a touch of brush-stroke texture. This 100% silk luxury ribbon is available in 3/4″ or 2″ widths, sold on 40-yard spools. Dupioni silk ribbon bias-cut, meaning it has a little bit of stretch to it when pulled taught. Seams do exist throughout the length of the spool, so you may need to round up on your yardage if you wish to cut around seams.
HOW TO CALCULATE RIBBON LENGTH NEEDED
Ribbon can be tied around your invitation, or use as a band secured with a wax seal. Please note, tying a bow or knot can cause a bump in your envelope which can increase postage costs or possibly damage the invitation as it passes through the mail. Because of this, we typically recommend boxed invitations if you wish to include a ribbon bow.
For ribbon bands, estimate 1 foot per invitation. For bows, estimate 2 feet per invitation.
Satin ribbon spools are 50-yards, providing enough ribbon for about 150 bands or 75 bows.
Dupioni Silk* ribbon spools are 40-yards, providing enough ribbon for about 120 bands or 60 bows.
*Dupioni Silk ribbon is bias-cut so it has a little bit of stretch to it, and it also has seams intermittently throughout the spool which may cause some waste if you want to cut around the seams.
