Stages of creation

• Circles with inscriptions must be printed in advance and glued to a cut-out cardboard circle of the same diameter.
• We cut out two more circles from cardboard, larger in diameter by 2 mm.
• We cut satin ribbons into strips 7 cm long of each color, 5 pieces each.
• Fold the ribbon in half lengthwise.
• Fold the edges towards the center, forming a triangle.
• We grab the triangle with thread. Repeat the same steps with all the cut ribbons.
• We apply white ribbon triangles to the orange ones so that there is a small protrusion. Secure with thread.
• We singe the tails.
• Place the triangles on the cardboard circle to form a star.
• Glue it to the cardboard with hot glue.
• We cut five more white strips 10 cm long.
• Fold in half.
• Place one end of the strip on glue to the center of the star.
• We glue the other one from the back side to the center.
• So we glue the remaining white stripes.
• Place a circle with an inscription on the glue in the center of the badge.
• For the witness, the badge will be attached to the hand. To do this, cut three strips of thin tape and cut out another cardboard circle.
• We make holes in the cardboard at equal distances.
• We pass the ribbons through the holes.
• Glue to the back of the wedding badge.

How to diversify wedding witness ribbons

You can slightly diversify the appearance of the ribbon itself and additionally add an ornament along the edges of the ribbon, or a small design next to the inscription. Very often, images of two rings, doves or swans are used to decorate the ribbon. You can change the text itself, indicate “friend of the groom”, “friend of the bride”.

Witness tape has become a whole tradition and is very popular in the wedding market. Specialized stores have a large number of offers for making ribbons and purchasing ready-made options. Therefore, if you cannot choose from the offered assortment, you can order your own original design.

To add originality, you can decorate the ribbons with flowers or special decorations. Don't forget to iron the ribbons before the ceremony. To prevent the tapes from slipping, they can be secured with safety pins on the witnesses' suits. The ribbons are tied on the side or the ends are sewn together, or you can secure them with safety pins.
