Handmade Pleated Trim

Hi Everyone, I hope everyone had a great weekend.  I had a great time with friends shopping.  A must needed trip to Scrappy stores. 

Today I wanted to share something I just created with the help of a video I saw on Youtube this morning.  OMG!!  Handmade Boxed Pleated Trim. I love the store bought ones but you know I'm also a hands on kind of person and when I saw this I had to try.  I have a ton of polyester ribbon and this would come in hand when you don't have the right color trim for your projects.  Love it.

Here is a of my trims:
 
What do you all think?  It's from the Celebrate Basic Polyester Ribbon from Michaels.  They are 5/8 inch ribbon and I love it. 

Here is the Supplies you need:
That's it.  Can you believe it.  It's a little consuming but the end results are so worth it.
Here is the Link to Leonie on Youtube.  Thank you Leonie for the Awesome tutorial.  It was so easy to follow along.  Enjoy and create some yourself. 

Thanks guys for stopping by today.  I will have a couple of birthday cards to share real soon.  As for the book box, I will share that probably at the end of the month.  I'm doing a swap and I want the recipient to get it first.  I hope you all can wait until then.  :0)

Have a Great day! 
Hugs,
Friday

Oh, Friday! That's GORGEOUS!! Now I know what I'm doing tomorrow! I'm going through all of my ribbons to see if I have any in that width and then I'm watching that video and trying it out! Thank you so much for sharing it! I can't wait to try it because I don't have any of the pleated trim at all!
I can't figure out how to subscribe to these comments anymore. Is that no longer an option? Or am I just missing something? :o)
