Product Information

Full details

The Berisfords Double Faced Satin Ribbon in purple is designed for crafters, wedding planners, and gift wrappers who require a professional, high-quality finish for their projects. Its primary advantage is the consistent silky sheen on both sides, allowing for seamless bows and knots without worrying about the ribbon's orientation. One caveat to consider is that the 5-metre length is best suited for small to medium-scale crafts, so larger events might require purchasing multiple rolls.

FAQs

Is this ribbon machine washable?

While it is high-quality, it is recommended to hand wash or spot clean only to preserve the delicate satin finish.

Can I use this for sewing onto clothing?

Yes, it is suitable for textile embellishments, though ensure you use a needle appropriate for satin to avoid snags.

Is the purple color colorfast?

The ribbon is designed for craft and decorative use; avoid prolonged exposure to heavy moisture or harsh detergents to maintain color integrity.

How many bows can I make from one 5-metre roll?

Depending on the size of your bow, a standard 20-25cm loop project will typically allow for approximately 20 to 25 bows.

Does this ribbon fray easily?

As with most satin ribbons, it can fray if cut incorrectly. Using sharp, dedicated fabric scissors significantly reduces this risk.

Troubleshooting

Edges of the ribbon are fraying after being cut.

Use sharper scissors or carefully heat-seal the very edge with a lighter flame at a distance to melt synthetic fibers slightly.

Ribbon does not hold a crisp bow shape.

Try using a small amount of non-staining fabric stiffener spray or ensure the knot is pulled tight enough to set the weave.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Uniform appearance on both sides
  • Easy to manipulate and tie into bows
  • Sophisticated purple color finish
  • High-quality, durable weave

Cons

  • Limited 5-metre length per roll
  • Single color option in this package
  • Not intended for heavy-duty load-bearing

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To ensure the longevity of your ribbon-based projects, handle with clean, dry hands to avoid transferring oils or debris to the satin surface. If you need to cut the ribbon, use sharp fabric shears to prevent the edges from fraying.

Storage & Care:

  • Keep the roll in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight to prevent potential color fading over time.
  • If the ribbon becomes wrinkled, use a low-heat iron setting with a pressing cloth between the iron and the ribbon to smooth out creases.
