When it comes to choosing which materials to use in our crafting processes, we tend to go in phases where we have new favourites here and there and we binge on them a little bit. That might sound unconventional, but we’ve actually found that this has helped us learn all kinds of different techniques, which makes us much more diverse crafters! Lately, our number one crafting love has been working with ribbons, so we’ve been keeping our eyes peeled for awesome DIY ribbon projects that we’ve never tried before.
If you’re feeling just as interested in the idea of making awesome ribbon crafts as we have been, if not more, here are 15 of the very best ideas, designs, and tutorials that we’ve come across so far in our search for inspiration and guidance!

3. DIY ribbon sensory box for babies
When our kids were very little, they’d get their tiny fingers into essentially anything within their reach.

That’s why we thought this ribbon based sensory box craft outlined with all kinds of cool, creative detail on was such a good idea! The ribbons give your baby all kinds of things to pull on and fiddle with in a way that’s educational and safe.
