Ok enough of the rant! I created a little tutorial for a ribbon fish I thought I might share with you guys. Brooklyn loves him, she wants one in pink, However I am not sure why she needs a pink fish!
Start out with 6 inches in your color choice of 7/8 grosgrain ribbon, Dovetail and heat seal the ends!

Fold about halfway at a 90 degree angle, making an L

Bring the other tail up crossing over the first one creating a point <

It should look like this

Crease and secure( I used a needle and thread, you can secure how ever you like)

Trim your thread, then glue 3/8 inch ribbon of the same color to cover your thread or wire

Here is my completed fish, I trimmed down the tail on each side, you can leave yours long if you like, its personal preference!
I hope you enjoyed the tutorial, more to come!
