The site also says, "Where can I buy your ribbons retail?<br />We have hundreds of retail outlets all around the US. Please contact us for the closest one.<br />For a complete selection of our LFNT ribbons sold retail, by the yard, visit Laura's web site at:<br />http://www.lfntextiles.com/servlet/StoreFront" I think you might have to buy it by the yard :( Sorry I couldn't find more for you.Nicolahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16911518961293078033noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5542845774706050825.post-1547907103307937232010-09-29T13:20:55.091-04:002010-09-29T13:20:55.091-04:00You've got me wanting some of that ribbon as w...You've got me wanting some of that ribbon as well.. just to stash of course.. no idea what project it would be good for ;)<br />If you found other small chairs that weren't a very similar wood hue, would staining them help at all? I'm personally scared of white furniture.. it attracts fingerprints like no ones business in my house.

It's just a thought, but I think it would look great (depending on the fabric you've chosen, of course.)Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15094739184191373698noreply@blogger.com
