30% off Sale ends March 9th and RibbonSmyth closes it's site!

Our newest inventory of velvets and they are a gorgeous assortment!  Velvets!
 
You all have been the best! Packing orders around the clock, and each and every order is always sent with a prayer, for your well-being! While I'm assembling your order, and lately it's been late at night, due to the heat and wind problems we have been dealing with, trying to keep power cranking with the wind, I try to imagine what you will create with the items I'm sending to you.
 
I've been so blessed to know the best women and work with you.
It will take the rest of the year, but the best customers, on this planet, will be receiving little envelopes of trims and ribbons as a small token, to express my appreciation to each of you. You helped keep RibbonSmyth going for 2 decades! My gratitude to each of you!
 
Our best sellers and favorite inventory is being moved to Etsy.

It has been an absolute luxury to have my website for 19 years, while exhibiting at trade shows, teaching workshops,  Creating ArtBra calendars and exhibitions, travelling back and forth from Minnesota and Washington DC, maintaining the farm and rescuing a variety of little animals. I was honored to work with the best women. To all of you, that have supported our site for almost two decades...my gratitude.
I have 11 rooms in my studio and the contents of each of those rooms will make its way to my Etsy and Ebay Sites! What fun to unearth treasures and get them to new homes! Yay!

30% off the entire RibbonSmyth site at www.ribbonsmyth.com !!!!

These are lace trims and a vintage image, with a collection of hand-dyed velvet ribbons and silk satin ribbons, that will be used to embellish this denim jacket. I'm designing the jacket for Rengin Yasitas, such a talented and kind lady that lives in Istanbul, Turkey.

Velvet Heart with rococo ribbon

This is another velvet heart with ribbon embroidery. I stitched the heart by hand and for this heart, I've added a trim of rococo rosettes in pastel colors, around the edge of the heart . This heart goes to a friend in New Jersey, who lost her husband unexpectedly. Each year, she receives a velvet heart for Valentines. I love this one the best!
 


Silk Ribbon Embroidered Velvet Heart


To honor Valentine's Day, I designed 3 hearts that have been sent to 3 friends, all experiencing some form of loss. Wish I could be with each of them. This heart was created with our variegated 7mm silk ribbon stitched onto a shot silk velvet.
