with Gwen Studios
This fairy wand was so fun to make, I love the color combination. I’ve never curled this kind of ribbon and it was fun watching it go from straight to curly after heating. I am sure your little girls would love to have one to play with.

Super cute! And, I learned something new; I didn’t know the ribbons would curl.
It was really easy and the results were great.
This is just darling! I love the color combinations and the gold stars at the top are perfect!
thank you, it really did turn out well.
I did not know you could curl ribbon in the oven!!! Wonderful idea that is easy. Great use of your ribbon scraps for hair bow streamers or gift packages!
Happy Holiday and Merry Christmas
It was my first time curling the ribbon this way – so fun and addictive!
