Product Information

Full details

The Neel Blue Double Sided Satin Ribbon is an ideal choice for crafters, event planners, and DIY enthusiasts looking to add a professional, elegant touch to their projects. Spanning 10 metres in length with a 50mm width, this ribbon offers a smooth, soft-to-touch surface that elevates everything from floral bouquets to wedding stationery. While its generous width makes it excellent for decorative bows, users should note that the non-wired edges mean it requires careful handling to maintain a crisp shape during complex fabric structures.

FAQs

Is this ribbon double-sided?

Yes, it features a smooth, satin finish on both sides.

Can I use this for outdoor decorations?

Yes, the material is durable, but keep in mind that prolonged exposure to rain and intense UV sunlight may eventually affect the color and texture.

Does it come with wire in the edges?

No, this is a non-wired satin ribbon, which gives it a soft, flowing appearance.

What is the best way to cut this ribbon to prevent fraying?

Cutting at a 45-degree angle (diagonal) or using a hot knife cutter are the most effective ways to minimize fraying.

Is the length definitely 10 metres?

Yes, each spool provides 10 continuous metres of ribbon.

Can this ribbon be ironed?

Yes, you can iron it on a low, synthetic setting. Always place a pressing cloth between the iron and the ribbon to prevent melting or shiny spots.

Troubleshooting

Ends are fraying after cutting

Use sharper scissors or apply a small amount of clear fabric glue/sealant to the edge.

Ribbon is losing its shape in a bow

Since the ribbon is not wired, use a light starch spray or insert a thin floral wire if extra structural support is required.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • High-quality, soft satin finish on both sides
  • Substantial 50mm width creates bold, professional bows
  • Ample 10-metre length for large projects
  • Consistent, vibrant red color quality
  • Easy to cut and manipulate for various DIY applications

Cons

  • Lacks wire edges, which may make structured bows more difficult to maintain
  • Single color option per spool
  • May fray at the ends if not sealed or cut with sharp shears

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To ensure the best results with your ribbon, use a pair of very sharp fabric scissors to get a clean, straight edge. If you are worried about the ends fraying over time, a quick pass with a fabric sealant or a gentle heat source (like a lighter, used with extreme caution) can seal the synthetic edges. Store the spool in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight to prevent color fading over time. When using the ribbon on light-colored fabrics or icing, test a small piece first to ensure the dye does not transfer in humid conditions.
