So, let me tell you about this little project I got into the other day. You know those fancy Chanel ribbons you get when you buy something from their store? Well, I had a few lying around from some past splurges, and I just couldn’t bring myself to throw them away. They’re so pretty, you know? So I thought, “Why not try to do something cool with them?”
I started by rummaging through my drawers to find all the ribbons I had saved. I laid them out on the table, all those white ribbons with the black Chanel lettering, and I just stared at them for a while, thinking. What could I do? I didn’t want to just tie them around random stuff.
Then it hit me! I have this plain straw hat that I love wearing in the summer, but it’s a bit, well, boring. So I decided to spruce it up with a Chanel ribbon! The best part? No sewing, no gluing, nothing permanent. I just wrapped the ribbon around the base of the hat, tied it into a neat bow, and voila! Instant chic upgrade. The black lettering on the white ribbon really pops against the straw. I was so stoked with how it turned out.
- First, I gathered all my Chanel ribbons.
- Then, I grabbed my plain straw hat.
- I wrapped a ribbon around the base of the hat.
- Finally, I tied it into a bow.
But I didn’t stop there. I started experimenting with other things. I used a longer ribbon as a belt for a simple black dress, and it looked so classy. I even braided a few smaller ribbons together to make a unique bracelet. It’s amazing how a simple ribbon can elevate an outfit or accessory.

And the fun didn’t stop there, either! I got another little idea to use a ribbon as a bookmark for my current read. It’s like a little touch of luxury every time I open my book. Honestly, the possibilities are endless. You could tie them around a vase, use them to decorate gift boxes, or even create some wall art.
It’s a simple way to add a touch of luxury to everyday items. I’m so glad I decided to get creative with these ribbons instead of just tossing them. It was a fun little project, and now I have some unique, personalized items that I love. Try it sometime, I promise, it is more simple than you think!
