Recommendations for this craft project: - NY Superfine Matte White Jordan Almonds are perfect for ribbon flowers. Polished almonds tend to slip around during production. - You will also want to use good scissors for cutting, tweezers to grab the strings, and a glue gun to finish the seams.
To make Padua bomboniera favors, snip off a length of the imported Italian two-ply ribbon with ten peaks. Place five almonds inside the five open pockets of the 10-peak strip. Grabbing hold of the ends of two tension strings sewn into the lip, pull the material gently away from the strings at one end. Repeat on the other side. Tie a secure knot and hot glue the fabric seams if necessary. Decorate!
