We make beautiful bows for the Garden Club of the Back Bay holiday wreaths. We don’t skimp on the quality of ribbon, either. All our ribbon is, at a minimum, 2 1/2 inches wide, sometimes wider, and is wired on the edges. The cost of each roll varies, and we do try to buy on sale, often at the end of the season, but in order to keep our customers happy and our decorators intrigued, we purchase a variety of colors and patterns. Sometimes, on the roll, our members wonder what we were thinking when we bought the ribbon. Black and gold? Buffalo checks? Purple? Polka dots? Yet, once made up, these ribbons sparkle with life. To see them being made, visit : http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-Od4RWBu6sw.    Below is a close up of one of this year’s new patterns, a sparkly red brocade over a bronze/green background. Unfortunately, we can’t guarantee any specific design from year to year, since often the manufacturers don’t keep the same stock in production. We do promise that all the bows will be beautiful.
