Tiny Tassel

Today's project is for my favorite person in the whole wide world!

Even though he's little and just starting out his educational career - I wanted to celebrate his Pre-K Graduation as much as I will when he reaches his high school and college milestones.

Yep, you guessed it - this gift card is for my son, Devlin.  I treasure every minute I spend with him.  He makes me beyond proud to say that I am a Mommy - his Mommy.

A great tutorial for this gift card holder, can be found at Sweet Impressions.




In my post yesterday, I recycled the tassel that was on a graduation invite we received.  However, I made my own custom tassel this time around using Real Red grosgrain ribbon.

 

How?

• Using your scissors, cut the ribbon lengthwise 
• After cutting you will be able to pull the ribbon fibers apart
• Bend the fibers in half and voila you have a custom tassel

I hope to create a step-by-step photo tutorial to explain this further, but for now, I hope this explanation gets you started.
