This is my absolute favorite tutorial of this braid! So easy to do, so clear about the technique. Makes the process much less intimidating. My issue is that I have trouble finding the good ribbon though! Where do y’all get yours?

[@thesoutherncottage]

I’m glad this tutorial is helping you. We get ribbon from all over the place. Dollar tree, Walmart, hobby lobby, Southern, Floral, Sams, Amazon. Just about everywhere.

[@christinerangel558]

[@tracyjohnston2547]

Do you have a finished braid with mum. 7:37 pm

[@jo_vnn182]

How many yards do you need for each ribbon?

[@thesoutherncottage]

I don’t know. I usually work off the spool

[@lizdavis3295]

❤❤❤😊

[@TJsMagicTouch]

I can never start mine without staples. I wonder if it’s because I use so many.

[@TJsMagicTouch]

I’m commenting like this is a live and you know which part I’m on 🤣🤣🤣 -

[@TJsMagicTouch]

Ooh cutting them is such a good idea

[@thesoutherncottage]

Hahahah

[@TJsMagicTouch]

I’m back again. I have to try this double. But for a lei.

[@lindafriday2320]

What are mums? Mum heads? Ring mums? Shoe mums? Wrist moms???

[@thesoutherncottage]

Homecoming Mum’s are a southern tradition for football games. Look up Texas homecoming mums or watch a couple more of my videos and you’ll see exactly when they are. They’re a little bit extravagant and a lot over the top but we love them. Basically an artificial flower with a lot of streamers and braided ribbon and trinkets

[@rebeccafernandez5781]

What kind of ribbon is this

[@thesoutherncottage]

Most is acetate

[@beatricemartinez4553]

Is that acetate ribbon?

[@thesoutherncottage]

Yes ma’am it is
