Oodles of Ribbons


I dunno about you guys out there, but I am ribbon mad. I was at Parkson some time ago and was wandering around the gift area and lo behold! A whole box of ribbons appeared before my eyes. I believe I was rummaging through the box, oohing and aahing (much to the amusement of the salesgirl there) for a good half hour.

Most ribbons are chosen based on the cookie inside the bag. Cookies for a baby boy's aqiqah is usually blue (or yellow). For girls, generally pink. But you can be unconventional and choose purple, green, or plain twine. I like using wool as they look rather rustic and they come in sooo... many colours that I get cross-eyed (and the salesperson gets just plain cross) from choosing.
