May Gibbs Ribbon Flower Ring for Mothers Day
A handmade Mother’s Day gift is one of my favourite gifts to receive as a mum. What’s even better is when I can wear it with pride on Mother’s Day to show off the gift.
This May Gibbs Ribbon Flower Ring is a stunning accessory and if your mum loves May Gibbs, she will absolutely adore wearing this ring.
It’s a very simple craft and doesn’t need a lot of materials. However, it can be a bit tricky folding the ribbon and gluing each fold to create the flower. You need another set of hands to help.
Materials for May Gibbs Ribbon Flower Ring Craft
- May Gibbs ribbon (20-30cm)
- Small button
- Scissors
- Hot glue gun
- Ring backing – available at craft stores in the jewellery-making section
Instructions
Adult help will be needed to help glue the ribbon into a flower shape.
- STEP 1: Take your ribbon and start to fold it so it can be fanned out. This will give indentations to the ribbon as you will need to let it unravel so a dot of glue can be inserted into the base of each fold.
- STEP 2: Start to re-fold on the crease of the ribbon and get adult help to apply a dot of glue into the base of each fold. You want the ribbon to fan out into a circle to create a flower shape.
- STEP 3: Glue each end of the ribbon to complete your flower. Trim off any excess ribbon.
- STEP 4: Dab glue to the face of the ring.
- STEP 5: Add a button to the middle of the flower with another dab of glue.
- STEP 6: Allow the glue to dry and store the ring in a safe place until it’s ready to gift to mum.
