100 Yards x 3/8" Wide Satin Ribbon
Smooth and silky, this thin satin ribbon is the classic material for many personal crafts and decorations. Lightweight, durable and versatile, it is the ribbon people reach for again and again because it behaves: it lies flat, it ties small, and a 3/8" width knots neatly without swallowing whatever it is tied around.
This ribbon can be used for making necklaces and bracelets, for dressmaking, scrapbooking, card making, embroidery, ribbon flowers, hair accessories and gift wrapping. The thin satin ribbon comes in a variety of colors, so there is a match for the look you have already settled on for your craft projects and decorations. Because the roll holds 100 yards, one order usually carries a whole project rather than running out three tables from the end, which is the single most common problem with ribbon bought by the metre.
The thin satin ribbons will add a streamlined look to your personal craft project and lend the perfect last touch of refinement to your wedding or celebration. Create adorable little satin ribbon bows or ribbon flowers to decorate your wedding reception. Adorn gifts and favors to your guests with your own crafted satin ribbon bows. Your reception will feel even more special having your own touch adorning the decorations, and guests notice the finish long before they could tell you why.
You can even frame together and decorate your guestbook or wedding photo scrapbook with the satin ribbon, to tie together a memento from your special day. Long after the tables are cleared, a length of the same ribbon running down a scrapbook page quietly connects the album to the evening it came from.
Satin ribbon is a staple rather than a one-event purchase. What is left on the roll after a wedding goes on to wrap birthday gifts, tie a christening favor, finish a hair bow or bundle a stack of thank you cards, which is why so many hosts keep a full roll in the craft box on purpose.
Choose your quantity above and give every favor, gift and bow on your table the same finished edge.

Which one should I choose
Ribbon choices come down to two questions: how wide the bow should sit, and whether the wording needs to be on the ribbon itself.
| 100 Yards x 3/8" Wide Satin Ribbon | Choose it when you want a thin, neat satin bow on favors, gifts and craft projects, in enough length to cover a whole event. |
|---|---|
| Personalized printed ribbon from the Personalized Ribbons + Tags category | Choose it when names, a date or a thank you need to be printed along the ribbon rather than on a separate tag. |
| A wider decorative ribbon | Choose it for chair sashes, large bows and table runners where a 3/8" width would disappear. |
For favors, small bows and craft work, thin satin at 3/8" is the width that finishes the job without taking it over.
Ordering the 100 Yards x 3/8" Wide Satin Ribbon for weddings and events
This satin ribbon is a practical bulk buy for weddings, showers, birthdays and corporate gifting, because one roll holds 100 yards and there is no minimum order. Estimate the length each bow needs, multiply by your guest count and order a spare roll. Standard production is 5-10 business days, rush 3-5 and expedite 1-3, plus 2-5 days US shipping, and for a wedding you should order 3-6 months ahead to leave time for assembling favors by hand. If your event also needs wording printed on ribbon or tags, or a company logo, that is a custom order: send a vector file (.eps, .ai, .cdr, .pdf or .svg) or a high-resolution image to [email protected], where a logo setup fee applies and not every logo can be done. For bulk pricing, please contact [email protected].
