Description
Taupe is beige's most elegant version: a little darker, a little greyer, and considerably more grown-up for it.
Satin ribbon at 6 mm wide in 100 % polyester, by the metre from 0.2 metres. For fine work this width is right: neck bows on children's clothes, tags on gifts, edges on cards. For large bows meant to hold their shape, reach for something wider. No washing, no ironing, no bleach, no drying. Roll leftovers so no creases remain. Because polyester gives hardly at all, the length you measured survives tying, and your loop will not sag.
What Satin Ribbon 6 mm Taupe is suitable for
- Neck bows on children's clothes, because 6 mm adds no bulk.
- Gift tags, because this ribbon knots easily.
- Edges on cards, because a narrow width reads precise.

Frequently asked questions
Why does only one side shine?
That is the satin weave: on the show side, yarn floats long across the surface and reflects light; on the back it binds short and stays matt. You can use either side deliberately.
How do I thread it through a casing?
Fix a safety pin or a bodkin to one end and push it through bit by bit. At 6 mm your casing is usually wide enough that the ribbon will not twist on the way.
Will it hold on paper?
With double-sided tape or a glue dot it holds well and peels off later without residue. Liquid glue soaks through such narrow ribbon easily, leaving dark marks.
Can I sew several side by side?
Yes, that gives a fine striped effect. Mark your lines with chalk first and keep the gaps even — at 6 mm, a gap of about one ribbon width looks right.
