The Ribbon Studio

Inspiring gifts and craft projects for every occasion.

Learn how to make more than a dozen ribbon accessories, ribbon home décor items, and gift embellishments with this DIY guide from famed ribbon-maker and creative designer Studio Carta

Most people think of ribbons for wrapping presents. But the wonderful colors and Italian cotton fabric of Studio Carta’s exclusive ribbons lend themselves to DIY projects for gifts, home decor, ornaments, and more.

This book captures Studio Carta’s sophisticated signature look and presents a collection of crafts inspired by (and made with) its lovely ribbons. Silke Stoddard and Laura Murphy, both longtimeMartha Stewart Living collaborators, have designed more than a dozen ribbon confections, including bows, present toppers, and little accessories. From simple DIYs to more elaborate embellishments, each project is an affordable luxury, as is the book itself: a perfect gift filled with wrapping secrets to make all of your gifts perfect, too.
