Ribbons Are Totally on Trend 🎀
Recently, the trend for weddings has been ribbons 🎀
✅ Tied as hair accessories
✅ Tied on paper items
✅ Tied on candle stands
✅ Tied on each flower
✅ Added to cakes
✅ Made into earrings
Ribbons are tied onto all kinds of things, and they are so cute ♡
What width of ribbon do you want?
Lately, it seems that thin satin ribbons are trending more than thick ribbons.
I looked into how thick they are.
For example, the ribbon used in this hairstyle is 5mm.
The ribbon tied on this flower is 3mm.*
This one is also 3mm.
By the way, the ribbon on this cake is 1cm.
Compared to the thinner ones, it's quite a bit thicker. The image changes a lot.
I think it also depends on where you're tying it, but if you have the feeling that "I want to use a thin ribbon!”, choosing ribbons that are 【5mm or less】 will likely get you that ideal thin ribbon.*
⚠ Be careful ⚠ Not much is sold at 100 yen shops…!
I think most people search for ribbons at 100 yen shops when buying them.....
If you go to craft stores or specialty wrapping shops, you can compare a lot of ribbons. That said, they are not always nearby…!
Recently, I thought, "I want to use a thin ribbon," and went to a 100 yen shop, but I had trouble finding the thin ribbon I had in mind.
What was actually lined up looked like this.
<First location>
Most of the ribbons were 10mm or thicker.
<Second location>
Here too, most of the ribbons were 10mm or thicker.
The thinnest I found at the two stores was this ribbon below, which was 6mm and a shiny type (it was called Shiny Pastel), with a wavy design.
Not a single ordinary ribbon that was 5mm or less was sold...😭
I checked online at Daiso.
I wondered if the thin ribbons were sold out because they are trendy. If so, can I have them ordered? I looked online at Daiso to see if they had ribbons that were 5mm or less.
As of July 2024, the only stock available was red and blue 3mm ribbons.
➡ Here is the Daiso online product page*
I used to buy this pink 3mm ribbon at Daiso a long time ago, so I unconsciously thought there would be more variations... but I was surprised by the unexpected result of just [two available] ribbons.
I also checked other 100 yen shops like Seria and Can Do, but I couldn't find any ribbons that were 5mm or less in the stores I visited.
If you want to buy ribbons that are 5mm or less, online shopping is the way to go!
I visited several 100 yen shops, but I couldn't find any ribbons that are 5mm or less...!
If you want “thin ribbons that are 5mm or less!”, I recommend buying them online ♡
I found a store that offers 1m cut-to-length sales, allowing you to purchase without waste and with a reasonable shipping fee of 300 yen!
There is a wide variety of colors and thicknesses, so you should be able to find the exact ribbon you want ♡
