Making a Magical Fairy Wand

with Gwen Studios

fairy wand

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.

Many of the items I use in posts are provided by the manufacturers to promote their products.

    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!
