I started watching, not gonna lie, was a bit like: "oh ok, tassels, yeah hmm alright why not watch, may as well, doubt I'll see anything different"
To then sitting here like 😍😍😍
Oh my! That blue ribbon one! I want a hundred of those threaded onto elastic as a waistband and have an entire skirt of them! Right down to the floor! All jingling gently as you walk! Those blues! Literally the best colour combo ever! Like a peacock or a kingfisher! Jewel tones! This certainly wasn't just "another tassel" video!
Absofuckinglutely gorgeous! I love how you put individual effort into your project pieces rather than bulk making quick-turn-around items to decorate journals en masse! You enjoy the process of creating, rather than knocking out items fast just for profit. Refreshing to be reminded to just make and enjoy, focus on the profit to your wellbeing rather than your purse! Too many videos lately of "let's make 25 journal cards in 1 hour" that kind of thing, turning an enjoyable creative moment into a commission incentive! Yes of course people deserve to make money from their crafts, even a little amount to keep their supplies full so their hobby is basically paid for, let alone profit. But the point of buying hand crafted items is that you want to own something completely individual, something that was made with the joy of creating it woven right into each piece. And you do that! And do it beautifully! 😘😘😘
OMG Tami, I think this is the nicest comment I have every received. You have truly made my day. Thank you so very much 💕💕💕
@@NinaRibenaMixedMedia Well I'm glad I kickstarted your day with a hit of confidence boosting! No more than you deserve! CZcams is flooded with crafting tutorials, it's getting harder and harder to find true inspiration among the thousands of samey demonstrations! My mojo hasn't so much disappeared, as slamming it's head against a wall out of boredom! Now it wants to dance barefoot and play tambourines as it twirls around wearing a ribbon tasseled skirt! 🌼🌹🌷🌸🌺
@@tamielizabethallaway2413 Tami,...you are such a cutie. I sure agree with everything you said about Nina's fabulous tassel. Yep, she's inspiring! And YOU have a wonderful way with words,...describing how you enjoyed this video. I can actually SEE you dancing thru the park, with your blue tassel skirt,...bells ringing, beads tapping against each other. A Flower Child for sure. (I know, cuz I was there!)
You sure made me smile, even laugh. You are a delightful soul!! Thanks for posting!!! 😃
What a wonderful, detailed tutorial, Nina! For me, tassels are sheer delight. Yours are so very beautiful! Thank you.
Thanks Elizabeth, glad you enjoyed it 💕
OH MY GOODNESS!!! I have been struggling for so long on how to make a fun/boho/creative tassel for bags that I sell. I needed a "wow" factor and THIS is what I have been looking for! I love to go to bead shows but always come home & just stare at them. You have given me the tools to know how to use the charms & beads that I have in my stash. And the added suggestion at the end of adding the tassel onto a binder - GENIUS! I sew journal covers as well and this will make them stand out! Thank you again!
Best Tassel tutorial that I have found! Thank you 💖
Thank you so much ❤️
Stunning ! I love the thimble tassel ! I have one of my Grandma's that doesn't fit me. This would make a fabulous idea to add to the hand bound journal I am making for my Granddaughter!! Brilliant!!!
That would be lovely I’m sure. Happy Creating 💕
Wow what a gorgeous and elegant tassel, love all the colors of the ribbons. Like also the simple one.
Thank you so much 💕
This was a wonderful video and I totally enjoyed learning how to make tassels with you. You were prepared and professional and so much fun to watch. ♥️♥️♥️
Thank you so much for your wonderful comment 💕
Hi Nina, a few years ago I went to a tassle-making facility in Munich. It was very interesting to see the process which was mostly done by hand.
Oh I would love to attend a facility like that 💕💕💕
Been saving old thimbles forever, what a great idea. I just love your tassel making Nina.
Thanks so much Dawn. I love the way the tassel looks with the thimble on top as it looks so unique. Might share more thimble ideas soon too 💕
Boho is your jam, Nina!!! What beautiful projects this week. I can tell you have had great fun playing in your stash and creating. Thanks for letting us peek and share with you.

Thanks so much Beth. The dangles make them look so unique 💕
Thank you Nina , a great video . I really love how you show how to make alternatives because as you said not everybody has same supplies , good advice especially now. I love how you used a thimble on your dangle. The finished product looks classy .
Thanks so much Maria. The thimble gives it such a unique look. I love the simple yarn one too 💕
Oh my goodness. Those are gorgeous. I see that mine are always a bit anemic compared to yours. I definitely will start using more fibers and charms. Thank you so much for the detailed assembly instructions and overall wonderful tutorial.
Thanks Janie, glad you enjoyed the tutorial 💕
I appreciate the influence you have given me to use up some of my hoard. On my road to a better more free me in 2023
Happy Creating ❤️

You’re so talented. I’m not even to mixed media but you make me want to try it. ❤️
Well now thimbles are added to my list when I'm off to the secondhand shops! I like how you give examples of alternative materials! Lovely tassels! 🤩
Thanks Lena, the thimbles look so lovely in this project don’t they 💕

Gorgeous tassels!! Thank you so much for the wonderful ideas!!!
Thanks so much. I’m glad you like them 💕
Hello Nina, Beautiful tassels, love them. I have a box of thimbles that used to be my grandmother's. I inherited them after she passed away.I love the idea of re purposing them into something that can be displayed instead of sitting in their box in a drawer. Thanks so much for sharing and inspiring. Have a lovely day!
Thanks Laura, I love the look of the thimble on this tassel. I hope you enjoy using yours 💕
Amazing how you make scraps look so beautiful
Thanks so much Aggie 💕
love your tassel!!Beautiful colors ,and beautiful charms!!

Beautiful tassels! I love making and using tassels.
Thanks Carol, I love making tassels too 💕
These are boho-licious Nina, have to say you do do a good dangle! I’m just sorry I recently threw away some thimbles! Have a good week and stay safe 💫💕
Oh no! Love that ‘boho-licious’! Hope you have a old week too 💕
Thank you so much.I shall be making lots of these now that you have taught me how.Yours are amazing.
Thanks Carly. Happy Creating 💕
Great tassels
Thank you 💕
Clever idea to use a thimble! Love it!
Thanks so much Darlene 💕
These are beautiful Nina, my favourite colour too. What a clever idea to use the thimble. A good way to use up bits of broken jewellery and oddments too 👍
Thanks Lesley, Edna made one with a bottle lid instead of a tassel and it was fantastic. Buttons would make gorgeous too. They’re a great way to use up odds and ends 💕
I really love them.
Unbelievable.So surprised the crockadile cut the thimble.Using it as a bead cap is genious.Thank you for this tutorial
Beautiful perfect tassels. I laughed at the idea of a tassel charm in a tassel. I have wondered if aqua and purple are your favorite colours, Nina. If pink is added to those two, it makes my favorite colours. Of course I love all colours as I'm sure you do as well. It's 82F in sunny Arizona up where I live (Northern Arizona) and expected to be 98F Thursday. Summer is my Winter in AZ (I stay inside when it's above 95F)! TFS as always. XOXOJane
Thank you Jane. I can’t honestly say I have a favourite colour as it depends on the season, but I do enjoy putting combinations of colours together. I do love aqua though, and lime green. We don’t often get temperatures that high here, but we are enjoying some warm weather at the moment, and its a very pleasant 60 - 65F. It doesn’t usually get above 75F even in the height of summer! I hope you are having a lovely week. Stay safe 💕 xoxo
Love this inspiration!! Blessings!!
Thank yo so much 💕
Love! Love! Love! ❤️❤️❤️
Thanks so much Sarina 💕
absolutely love these thank you..
Beautiful tassels, Nina. Tfs.Hugs, Dee xxx💖💖💖
Thanks Dee, it was so nice to get my beads out again 💕 Hugs 💕 xxxxx
Thank you for this tutorial. I love your Boho Gypsy Tassels. 🥰
Thank you so much 💕
Great tutorial!! Thank you for the inspiration! ❤❤
Years ago we would use dental floss to tie tassels & macrame! Used old hoop earrings & pins, went thru rag bins & second hand shops. Back in the early 1970’s, us hippies would find decorative beauty in almost anything.
Oh how fabulous 💕
Oh My I want this tassel so badly! It's so beautiful, and Boho! TFS Hugs!
Thank you so much Marg 💕
Very pretty!… not sure my hands/ fingers would cope,but loved watching you make yours 😁X
Thanks Lynda. I still have the paper one you made me a few years ago 💕 x

Thanks Kay, glad this has inspired you. Can’t wait to see what you make 💕
OMGOODNESSS!!! You make the most wonderful ribbon tassels. I wish I kept all of my ribbons now. And I wonder what ever happened to all of my thimbles that I collected years ago while traveling the world. I love them.
Lovely tassels and great tutorial! Thank you, Nina, for sharing it with us! 👏😍🤗
Thank you Cristina, I hope you’ll give it a try 💕
Thank you for your clever ideas👏😊🌹
Really interesting watching you manipulate these tassels, Nina - not something I've ever done 🙂
I had so much fun making these Maggie, you should give it a try. They’d look lovely embellished with buttons too 💕
Although not my style I do love how your tassels turned out, amazing what you can do with recycled items.
Thanks Katrina, glad you like how it turned out 💕
I just love the work of art you have created. I’m beginning to learn tassels and I’m amazed
I love it!
