Keeping the ends of ribbon tidy

Burn them. Get a lighter adn just seal the ends x

Will you not see it??

You either need to cut the ends diagonally into points or cut a "V" shape out of the end. This should help but the only absolute fail safe i know of is to melt or burn the ends.

Not really no - if youre in doubt test it out on a bit that youre not using for the final product x

Thanks girlies, will give it a go ?

If you've got lots to do you could get some Fray Stoppa (or equivalent) from a sewing shop or eBay. Use a little paintbrush to dab some on the ends of the ribbon and it will create a sealed edge.

Would clear nail varnish not do pretty much the same job?

Genius! Worked on my tights when I was at school, lol.

I've not tried it myself, but am assure than nail varnish (clear) will work

Agreed. I use a lighter x

Fray check is great stuff, will stop the ribbon fraying and you'll be surprised how often it comes in handy for other things. A little bottle will last forever and it's only about £3.00

This is good:
