12-Loop Homecoming Ribbon

I am one step closer to completing "the Mum"... Here is the 12 loop Homecoming Ribbon ready to add in to the final product.

 

Supplies:
Two kinds of ribbon, one bigger than the other
for a 36" loop with 12 loops about 4 yards of the wider ribbon and about 3 yards of the narrower ribbon.
for an 18" loop with 12 loops it would be half.

First cut the ribbon. You will want 1 whole yard of the wider ribbon. This one will be your base. Then cut 12 - 7" strips of the wider ribbon and 12 - 7" strips of the narrow ribbon.

Put one piece of the narrower ribbon on top of the wider ribbon and fold them over end to end and line them up. Staple in place. Make all 12 of the loops.

Take the 1 yard ribbon and start at the bottom. Put the bottom one where you want it and staple each loop on each side at the top working your way up as you cover the previous staples.

Add letters and other decorations as you see fit. Have fun..
