They are great for boho wedding bouquet wraps, for invitations and all your decoration ideas! They are hand made by myself in my little studio in France.
They are delicate hand ripped ribbons from 100% natural Habotai silk fabric. I hand dye them with plant dye only in earth friendly and human friendly ways... for gentle, subtle and soft tones. They are made with a bit of rhubarb, madder, some hibiscus flowers and some mignonette :)
Those silk ribbons are not suitable for heavy weight but perfect to swing in the wind. The edges are frayed, on some pictures they have not been ironed but will be before shipping, ready for your project - you can always scruff them a bit if you prefer a textured look :)
They are great for wedding bouquet and decoration, handfast ceremony, invitations, streamer or wand, wrapping, styling, weaving, photography props, wreath, festival headdress... and everything else your imagination will lead you to create with them ;)
In the sun, those silk ribbons have a light shimmer and a rather matte finish.
Dyeing is made by hand with dye from plants only. This gives subtle, muted, yet living tones with interesting nuances. If you want larger quantities, I will make a batch just for you. Custom orders can be ready in 1 to 2 weeks, please contact me.
Ribbons will be sent flat, rolled on a card. The spools on pictures can be bought in my shop - they are hand made by an artisan in France with local wood: https://www.etsy.com/fr/listing/738740629/bobine-pour-ruban-faite-a-la-main-en
