For the Love of Ribbon: Exploring the Dimensional Magic of Silk (+ An Exclusive Thursday Gift!

Every artist has a medium that completely captures their heart. For me, that medium has  been ribbon embroidery since I first discovered it. There is a dimensional magic to it that regular thread simply cannot replicate. The way the ribbon twists, gathers, and catches the light creates a living, breathing piece of art on the canvas.

Because of my ribbon love affair, I want to shine a massive spotlight on my favourite textile this weekend: our signature Silk Road Mulberry Silk Ribbons and our curated Ribbon Embroidery Kits (including my personal favourite, the MillyRose Original Mulberry Silk Rose Basket design!).

Why Mulberry Silk Ribbon? If you have never tried ribbon embroidery before, mulberry silk is the absolute pinnacle. It behaves completely differently than synthetic polyester ribbons. It is incredibly soft, fluid, and possesses a delicate, natural lustre. As you form the petals of a flower, the silk drapes and holds its shape with an organic elegance that looks strikingly real.

Whether you are looking to treat yourself to a complete, beginner-friendly kit or want to expand your own personal stash with loose spools of magnificent silk, it is a truly joyful medium to experience.

Sharing the Love: A Special 4-Day Event Because this medium is so close to my heart, and because I want as many of you as possible to experience the exquisite tactile joy of silk ribbon embroidery, I am doing something very special this weekend.

From Thursday through to Sunday, I am offering an automatic and exclusive 15% discount across our entire Silk Road Mulberry Silk Ribbons collection and all Ribbon Embroidery Kits!

(Please note: This exclusive weekend event covers our specialty silk ribbons and ribbon kits only, and excludes our Au Ver à Soie range, as their team is currently away on a 14-day holiday!).

Whether you are treating yourself to a weekend of quiet stitching or buying the raw materials for your next masterpiece, there has never been a better time to bring premium silk into your studio.

Head over to the shop on Thursday, apply the discount at checkout, and let’s fall in love with ribbon embroidery together.
