At 6 mm this strong green reads far less loud than on wide ribbon, so it works on patterned fabrics too.
It is woven in satin: on the face, yarn floats long across the surface, making it smooth and lustrous, while the back stays matt. 100 % polyester, 6 mm wide, available from 0.2 metres. Care symbols rule out washing, ironing, bleach, tumble drying — so use it where things stay dry. Roll leftovers rather than folding them; a fold leaves crease lines that hardly settle again without pressing.
What Satinband 6mm Grün is suitable for
- Floral projects, because green picks up their leaves.
- Small Christmas pieces, because this shade suits them.
- Pairings with dark red, because that pair is classic.
Frequently asked questions
Which width should I pick?
Narrow ribbons follow curves more easily and suit fine bows or edges. Wider ones carry more presence, hold their shape better, and set a clear accent on bags or wrapping.
Can I glue this instead of sewing?
On paper or card, craft glue holds well. On fabric, textile glue is a better choice because it stays flexible. Over time, though, only a seam holds reliably through laundering.
Will the colour rub off?
Polyester takes colour into its yarn rather than into a coating, so there is hardly any rubbing off onto pale fabrics. Test very dark shades against white on a scrap first.
Can I thread it through eyelets?
Yes, as long as your eyelet is wider than your ribbon. Cut that end at an angle and seal it briefly, so threading goes easier without fraying on the way through.
