Many thanks, Ali
There is a website JKM Ribbons. I'm not sure if they have what you want, but it would be worth looking into.

Here Ali, try Ribbon Oasis http://www.ribbonoasis.co.uk/index.php?cPath=1_38
They have a really wide range of sheer ribbons and there are some rainbow-y ones which might do the trick? They're UK based too
Ali: I think you are looking for variegated organza ribbon right? If so here is a website that may help:

So if this is what you are looking for, do another google search under "variegated ribbon".
This is one of my favorite ribbon sites: http://www.mjtrim.com/

Ali I once found some of this ribbon in a market stall in Yorkshire, it is going back about 6 months, they haven't had any since, it was about half an inch wide and in colours from pink/lilac through to blues and greens. It might be worth checking out market stalls in your area. Will keep my eye out for you too.

wow, what a great response!
Millie - omg the list is endless!
Chloe - the two-tone is perfect, yipee :dance:
Michelle - this has given me lots of ideas for the future
Chrissi - the hand dye ribbons are gorgeous
Pauline - didn't think about markets :doh: must get out more often
Thank you all so much, I've had a great time looking at all these sites and I've bookmarked them for future reference
Big hugs to you all, Ali x :hug:
In the UK I remember that www.nostalgiaribbon.com has superb ribbons. They stock lots of ribbon...but you need to email him as I am sure he keeps the wider stuff too.
Or try the pièce de résistance of ribbon shops..they do mail order.
Chloe - the two-tone is perfect, yipee
Glad to hear it Let me know if you end up using it!
Thank you Jenny, what a beautiful site nostelgia is, such lovely peices.
Chloe you'll be the first to know

OMG! I have such a stash of ombre' ribbon! I bought scads of it when a local craft store was going out of business. Are you looking for a small amount for a particular bear or an entire roll? What color, width, etc? If you just need enough for one bear and have a color in mind, I can check the stash. All of mine has wired edges. Every time we go to a store with ribbon, my children groan. I tell them, I'm just going to look! Yeah, right!

Awwwww Alison thats really sweet of you
I'm not sure what I'm after yet, just wanted to find a supplier and get some ideas. I bought a lovely Charlie bear a few months ago that came with a beautiful ribbon that went through all the brown shades, but it didn't suit him, so I took it off and replaced it with some rope and a rusty key (much better). I was just wondering where I could get more of this style of ribbon from.
Thanks again, Ali xxx
