So, I bought this ribbon...

...And I have no idea what to do with it.
It's simple black ribbon. I can't find a picture of it anywhere, so we'll have to use a description. It looks like folded over slightly transparent stuff with a layer of tulle over it. The excess coming out of the hem is scraggly. It looks like it'd be good to use for ribbon roses or accents on clothes. Honestly, though, I'd like to use it for something else.
Any ideas?

how about some pretty ribbons? I already did the tutorial, check it out! Or maybe for some skirts, you can sew them on the edges of a bright colored skirt..
But I also would use them for my boots. I once sewed my yellow ribbons on the seams of my boots. those boots were bright pink so it looked great!

You could use it to make a headband? From the way you described the ribbon, I think it would look very pretty Happy Or you could do a fold-over clutch and cover the part that is folded over with the ribbon for a structured look Happy

If you have a pair of shoes that are starting to look a bit scuffed up, you could cover them with the ribbon by cutting strips and sticking them down with mod podge
