I'll be sad when it's all gone It's the sort of stuff that can look really nasty used in the wrong place but I love it for these little tributes.

It is water and stain proof and used to come in some lovely colours. It has a draw string running through it which you can pull to make it frilly. I never use the string as its a bit overkill ....... I just pleat it like normal ribbon.
