For my newest Victorian inspired collection I made several ribbon medals. I have these amazing jacquard ribbons that I was eager to include in my work and while researching for the collection I thought they would give it a nice polished edge and a bit of steampunk air.
Making these is incredibly easy, so if you are into something like this, here’s how I made them.
What you need:
-
a decorative ribbon
-
a ribbon clamp
-
a “medal” (think of trinkets, metal {or other} pendants, beads, whatnots)
-
a jump ring and a brooch pin
If you use a jacquard ribbon, singe the edges so that they do not fray.
Insert clamp and press it.
Attach the “medal” and slide in the pin. Told you it was easy!
