In the description it says no rhinestones which is fine. However, I want to use this for "lettering" Can the ribbon bend nicely for that?

.... there are no rhinestones but you would never know, you have to take a double take and examine it to figure it out.... it is very pretty. I used it to decorate my daughters baptism cake and was beautiful! It is soft and flexible. It's inexpensive so definitely worth a try, if it doesn't work out for the lettering I'm sure you can find another use for it.....Good Luck :-)

But I didn't receive rolls . It was like measured pieces can't remember width or how many strands

I personally would hesitate to use it on ribbon. it wouldn't last very long. It's great for cross stitch fabrics because you will frame them and there isn't that much wear. I use it myself for cross stitch only though. I hope this helps.

Hello Deanna, I was also wondering the same question. The applicator wand only works with pre glued rhinestones. Its a Hot Fix Applicator and Hot Fix brand pre glued rhinestones may be bought and used for this applicator. Less mess and kinda cool idea for a hot wand ! ! !

The description of the ribbon should give this information. Otherwise, I have no clue.

They do not bend at a 90 degree angle but You could make it work for a cake topper. Very cute idea!

Yes, you can. I cut the banding in to four strands for a rhinestone applique I made.

I also just purchased ribbon for cake I made and it also provided the right amount of bling to my cake.....very easy to apply and it stays put!!! Good Luck!

You would not be able to engrave it as there is a carved starburst pattern on the bottom. Too bad, because that is a nice idea especially for a wedding gift.

Sadly, no. There are small flat pieces of metal and the adhesive is on those. The metal won't bend.:(

There is no "Ribbon" in this machine. The color is in the card stock you use so if you want black letters you will have to find blank magnetic cards have a black interior instead of the white. The only other option would be to manually color the raised letters after embossing but I don't think that would be practical or look as good. I'm not sure where you could get the black card stock but I'm sure if you Google it you will find some.

If you mean stencil sheets the type that have openings/holes in them, no you can't. These floral sheets r plastic n stiff and have no openings. The best u can do with them is to place the sheet on ur rolled fondant n gumpaste and press or roll out. Or u can decide to place it on a cake that has been FRESHLY covered with fondant but these sheets won't bend to the sides because its stiff and can break. If you have more questions, do send me a mail pzeus@ymail.com.

No....they only bend like a watch band. They sale some led lights where u can make a circle. Alittle more expensive but worth what ur looking for.

I do not think that would work. The cursive loops are dainty and thin and would be distorted by the texture

Pretty good. I recommend you test it on a scrap piece first because it can be a little tricky threading thinner things. Ribbon and binding will sometimes twist if you're not careful but overall, it works well for embellishments.

These blanks are pretty thin. They don't hold their shape after bending. Stamping might give them more strength. I would use a gilders paste just to give them some interest. I tried using polymer clay on them and was disappointed with the lack of strength.

What kind of ribbon? Fabric ribbon or the ribbon bought to put on gift boxes? Fabric ribbon works quite well and I haven't noticed any puckering. You just have to be careful not to put too much glue to keep the ribbon looking smooth. I usually use a Qtip to apply glue to fabric ribbon to keep the glue light and neat. Gift box ribbon I haven't used this glue on it. I used another fabric glue and this Beacon glue is better for gluing fabric pieces together. To keep fabric from puckering or showing, don't press down hard on the fabric once glue is applied. I learned this the hard way. A gentle pat on the fabric, once this Beacon Fabri-Tac is on, will make your fabric look neat and nice.

No sewing machine will stitch through crystals and rhinestones . . .those will need to be added by hand or a special tool designed for that purpose. An experienced user will have no problem using this machine to stitch the garments.
