🧵 The ribbon

The handmade cotton canvas ribbon is a decorative label made from 100% natural cotton, designed for makers who want to immediately communicate the value of handmade products. At 15 mm wide and sold by the metre, this ribbon printed with “Fatto a mano” (“Handmade”) or “Handmade With Love” is perfect for adding a professional touch to packaging, party favours and sewn accessories.

Thanks to its durable screen print, the lettering stays clear even after repeated washes. Each metre of ribbon provides approximately 18–20 labels, each 5 cm long, making it an economical and versatile solution for anyone producing handmade creations in larger quantities.

🧬 Technical composition: why it works

100% natural cotton was chosen for this ribbon because it is durable, soft to the touch and easy to work with. Unlike synthetic ribbons, cotton is easy to sew by hand or machine, does not slip while sewing and does not fray excessively when cut, keeping edges neat even without special finishing.

The canvas weave gives the ribbon a sturdy, compact structure, ideal for sew-on labels that need to withstand everyday use. This natural fibre is also suitable for machine washing at up to 60°C, making it perfect for labelling garments, fabric accessories and items that require frequent washing.

📦 Ribbon size and yield

The ribbon is sold by the linear metre and is 15 mm wide. Each metre contains approximately 18–20 repeats of the wording, allowing you to make the same number of labels, each about 5 cm long. One metre lets you label up to 20 creations, while 2 metres will comfortably cover 36–40 handmade products.

There is no minimum order quantity: you can order just one metre to try the product, or buy a longer length for larger projects. When you order multiple metres, the ribbon is supplied as one continuous piece, making it easier to handle and cut individual labels to size.

🧶 Sewing recommendations

The ribbon is suitable for both hand and machine sewing. For machine sewing, use a universal needle size 80–90 and cotton or polyester thread. The canvas weave is sturdy enough that it does not require special reinforcement, but to stop the edges fraying after cutting, you can quickly run a flame along them or stitch a zigzag along the sides.

For hand sewing, the cotton canvas is easy to pierce with an embroidery needle or a standard sewing needle. You can attach the ribbon to bags, pencil cases, handmade garments, gift wrapping and party favours. If using the ribbon as an exterior label, remember to sew all four sides for a secure hold.

✨ Why choose the Handmade Cotton Canvas Ribbon

Compared with paper labels or synthetic ribbons, this cotton canvas ribbon offers a more professional and longer-lasting finish. Paper labels are easily damaged by moisture and cannot withstand washing, while synthetic ribbons tend to slip during sewing and look less natural. Cotton canvas, on the other hand, immediately conveys craftsmanship and attention to detail.

The wording “Fatto a mano” (“Handmade”) or “Handmade With Love” instantly enhances your creations, making them recognisable and setting them apart from mass-produced products. It is the ideal solution for selling at craft markets, online or in artisan shops, and adding a professional touch without high costs.

🎨 What you can make

This ribbon is perfect for labelling all kinds of handmade products: hand-sewn clothing, fabric accessories, bags, pencil cases, decorative cushions, handmade party favours, personalised gift wrapping and packaging for handmade products sold online or at markets.

👩‍🎨 Who it's for

This ribbon is suitable for everyone from sewing and craft beginners to professionals. No special skills are required: simply cut the desired length and sew the label onto your finished product. Even if you have never attached a label before, you can achieve professional results in just a few minutes.

It is especially popular with people who sell handmade creations online (Etsy and artisan marketplaces), take part in craft markets, make personalised party favours as a hobby, or run small craft businesses and want to give their products a distinctive identity without investing in expensive custom labels.
