about an hour each? These two were my experimentals. I used a 5 inch styrofoam ball.
I measured all the strips into four inches which took about half an hour... used about 100 pins? but i wasnt really counting. and ended up with one very sore thumb from pushing the pins in!
Can you use a thimble?
They look terrific, btw. Vibrant and unique. I love them!
I looove these! I keep changing my mind about how I am gonna make mine b/c I keep seeing better things! Idk if I want to go through that much time and energy though.. maybe I do.
Lorrienee - yes you can use a thimble. Im not a sower tho and dont have a sowing basket, so I went to my parents place last night and raided mums sowing basket for one after my poor thumb started to throb tho!
I love these. I made sample fabric and ribbon pomanders and the fiance liked the fabric ones better. Too bad they're taking me so much longer (about four hours each)
BrianneG do you have any photos of your fabric ones? I would love to see!
Very nice! They look complicated though, but very nice, good luck on the rest, these look great!
Complicated to put together? or just look too busy?
I just filled it till there were no gaps and put them in no real methodical order, just tried not to have one colored ribbon next to the same colored. I did it while i was watching a movie with the FH, didnt take much concentration!
Love them! Where are you going to use them? Ceremony? Reception hung from the celiing? For some reason I think these would look really great hung from the ceiling...
skibobrown - originally to hang from the side chairs on the aisle but we might use them for the reception! great idea!
i love them and they are very unique!!! what are you using them for???
@Crane, you should take pictures of the process on the next one you make and post a tutorial in DIY! I'd love to see how they're made!

Hi Ladies
I was inspired by another bride on on weddingbycolor with her ribbon pomanders. http://www.weddingbycolor.com/erayitas7/milestones/103144 < for instructions
And decided to create my own.
My pictures didnt come out clear and they look alot better hanging than squashed on my living room table as in the photos.
But you get the idea :) I really like them!!!!!! only another 10 more to make.. :(
