Can you use 7/8 ribbon?
Hi Sandra! Thank you for your question. Yes, you could use the wider ribbon for sure. The look of the bow will change slightly with a wider ribbon but it will still look adorable. Because your ribbon will be wider, you may not need as many strips of ribbon to begin with. You will just have to see how full you want it and go from there. You can always cut more strips if you aren’t getting your desired fullness…that is if you cut fewer strips to begin with. Have so much fun making your bows and have a wonderful day! Michelle 🙂
