What are the dimensions of the ribbon?

While durable, prolonged outdoor exposure to sunlight and weather may cause fading and degradation. It is best suited for indoor or temporary outdoor applications.

Can this ribbon be machine washed?

Troubleshooting

Ribbon frays when cut

Use a very sharp pair of fabric scissors or a rotary cutter. For synthetic ribbons like polyester, briefly sealing the cut edge with a flame (use extreme caution and test on a scrap piece first) can prevent fraying.

Bow does not stay tied

Ensure the knot is pulled taut. The non-slip texture of this ribbon helps significantly, but proper knotting technique is still key.

Color transfer or fading

Avoid prolonged exposure to direct sunlight or high humidity. If cleaning is necessary, use a slightly damp cloth and blot gently; avoid rubbing.
