Mosaic Monday Ribbons 7/27/09

Mary at littleredhouse is having another Mosaic Monday so please go visit her to see the list of bloggers who are sharing their exquisite photos of their "fluff"!!
~*~

I have a big hat box full of different ribbons I bought or had scraps that were left over throughout the years. Not one of these ribbons was repeated in the making of this mosaic. Plus I have even more boxes and bags of ribbons. I've got to stop buying them!

  6. I love ribbons and trims. Your mosaic makes me want to create something. So lovely, you have quite a collection. I once visited Tinsel and Trading and thought I died and went to heaven.

    Happy Mosaic Monday

  9. Love your ribbons! I have a small treasure trove of ribbons compared to yours.... Reminds me of my grandmother who bought fabric all the time and would show it to me when I visited. She would talk about what she was going to make, but as she got older, she just continued to collect the fabric without getting all of the clothes made! From her, I inherited a nice stash of buttons. I'm guessing you might have some of those, too?

  10. Oh Connie honey, I hate to tell you, but you have CRA. Cute/colored Ribbon Addiction. It has only been diagnosed since Connie cleaned up her rooms while redecorating, and she says that it really isn't to painful at all. It isn't to costly either. So I guess if you are going to have an addiction this would be a good one. Have a wonderful Monday. Country Hugs, Sherry

  19. You can say you'll stop all you want but then they call to you when you're not looking. They taunt you with new colors and patterns. Their conspirators have sales that cannot be passed up. And their best friends, The Buttons, are in league with them. So, ribbon away, all is lost and, in the long run, it's such a harmless little addiction.

    BTW - the mosaic is wonderful!!
