How to Make Dance Ribbons on a Stick for Dancing
- 1). Cut a segment of dowel rod that is about 1 foot in length. The dowel should be 1 inch in diameter. This is your handle.
- 2). Use sharp scissors to cut a segment of satin ribbon that is 5 feet long. Choose ribbon that is 2 inches wide for a dramatic effect.
- 3). Wrap one end of the ribbon around the tip of the dowel once.
- 4). Secure the ribbon to the dowel using electrical tape.
- 5). Tape the handle so that it is completely covered. Not only does this cover the join between the ribbon and the dowel, it also gives the handle a neat, finished look.
