Default Ribbons & Bows Oh My ?

I've looked at their site a few times and they really have some pretty ribbon. My question is for anyone that has bought their ribbon. How does it work with the SU Cardstock? All my cardstock is SU and I really like to use the SU ribbon but I would like some striped grosgrain for my Christmas cards. Thanks!

I have just about all the colors of their grosgrain and alot of it matches pretty well. Couldn't tell ya which colors though because they are all in a big jar together.

Their website is: http://ribbonandbowsohmy.com/

They have some polka dots and stripes that I'm thinking about buying, especially the green, red & white grosgrain.

Ohhhh, RABOM is one of my FAVORITE places to shop online! I have almost all the solid grosgrain ribbons, and buy it when they run their quarterly sale. They are fast with shipping too!

Default Not sure

I have heard that most of their colors match SU! They even have some of the same as our retired colors. I wish I couls find my list that compared our colors to theirs and what they call them. I would think most of them you would be safe with.

I just placed a small order. I ordered the red, green and white striped ribbon and a few others that I thought would be fun. I ordered their large spool of white 1/4". If I like it, it will be an amazing price, $9.95 for 100 yards!

They just had the sale for this quarter. :-( Next one will likely be sometime in early Dec. They don't announce them very far in advance.

Got on the mailing list too. What do they normally offer during their sales? A percentage off or just specific items?

Quarterly, they offer 20% off solid color grosgrains. Periodically, they offer specials and sales on their specialty ribbons, but it's never the same stuff twice!

I placed my order on Wednesday and had my order on Friday. The ribbon is really pretty. I ordered the 100 yard roll of White Grosgrain and its huge and such a great price! I ordered some of their stripes and polka dots. I will be ordering more in the near future.

I just ordered a huge amount on Monday and got the box today (Saturday). I cannot believe how big the roll is for 100 yards of grosgrain! I also got a nice bundle that looks great with buckaroo blue & green galore and a few other colors. I was really thrilled to find a suitable replacement for SUs narrow organdy!

I'll definitely order from ribbonandbowsohmy.com again!

What a great site! I don't buy a lot of ribbon, but just compared the price to the SU! price in that catalog and they can't be compared. Am putting this site in my favorites right now!

I thought it was a very good value - 100 yds of grosgrain for $9.45. The spools are enormous and DH says he can't imagine that I'd ever need to buy that color again...but now that I have the color match document, I have other colors to buy. (lol)

Default Ribbon Matching

Does anyone have the matchs for the Fall Winter catalog?
I see on their site they say they are going to match the ribbon to SU, but that has been up a while.

I sent an email on 8/22 to the contact (from their website) and asked about that - even offered to assist if it would expedite the process, but so far, no response.

I considered buying a ribbon card so I could do the matching myself, but they're sold out.

Wish I had a better answer.

Thumbs up Ask for samples!

I haven't ordered from them yet, but I did send an email requesting samples. I received a letter in 2 days with 3 color samples taped to it. FYI the "taupe" at rabom matches the SU cocoa exactly!
Hope this helps.

Sorry I missed this:

Groovy Guava is Light Coral
Soft Sky is Light Blue

I haven't found matches for the other In Colors.
