"Green Ribbon" Option

Cream City's 100% cotton curling ribbon is made in the USA of 100% natural and biodegradable cotton yarns, water soluble glues, and soy based inks. It's look is very unique.


It appears to be paper but its not. It is very stiff to the touch. It curls like traditional splendorette curling ribbon and it also shreds and strips very easily. You can fold and crease this ribbon and it holds the shape. You can even weave this ribbon. All these features and attributes make cotton curling ribbon a great option for a green ribbon to finish off your green retail packaging.

It comes in a variety of solid colors, variant stripe and dot combinations and can be custom imprinted with your logo. The cost of this product is reasonable but varies greatly between retail packaging distributors. So look for the best deal.


This ribbon is being used in the retail, floral, gift basket and craft markets, by manufacturers and even in event planning and wedding decorating.





This excerpt was taken from the Gift Box Corporation's website --- Is it cotton curling ribbon too?



"Eco-friendly ribbon will soon be available in 100% organic cotton and a blend of cotton and hemp. This product will be available plain or custom printed."



I can't wait to see what new ribbon products Gift Box Corporation is introducing this year. The have something new up their green sleeves. Once the new catalog is out, I will update the blog with more information on Gift Box Corporations product description and image.


There are other natural 100% cotton ribbon products in taffeta, herringbone or basket weave design. These types of ribbons are much more costly then cotton curling ribbon. They are soft to the touch and do not retain their shape when tied into a large bow. A simple bow or knot works well when using this ribbon complementing your retail packaging.
