9mm Satin Ribbons

9mm Satin Ribbons by the Metre

9mm satin ribbon is the narrow workhorse of any haberdashery drawer. Made from 100% polyester with a glossy front and matte back, it's double-sided in the sense that both faces show a clean finish, which matters when you're tying bows or edging something that gets seen from all angles. We sell it by the metre or in a full 25-metre bundle, so you can order exactly what a project needs without paying for excess. The width sits right in that sweet spot between too delicate and too bulky, useful for anyone working on smaller-scale finishing details.

What this ribbon width is good for

At 9mm, this satin ribbon suits fine, detailed work rather than big statement bows. Think along these lines:

• Wrapping small gift boxes or favour bags
• Adding a decorative border to handmade cards
• Trim on baby clothes, lingerie, or lightweight garments
• Bookmark ribbons or tags on handmade items
• Bow-making for hair accessories

Because it's narrow, it folds and gathers more easily than wider ribbon, which makes it a practical choice for rosettes or ruching where you need the material to bend without buckling.

Ordering by the metre or in bulk

You can order 9mm satin ribbon per metre if you're only finishing off one or two items, or go for the 25-metre roll if you're stocking up for a workshop, a small business, or a batch of similar projects. Buying the bundle usually works out cheaper per metre, so it's worth considering if you know you'll get through it. Either way, there's no minimum beyond a single metre, which keeps things flexible for one-off makers and hobbyists alike.

Other widths in the range

If 9mm turns out too narrow for what you have in mind, we also stock 16mm Satin Ribbons for slightly more presence without going oversized, and 25mm Satin Ribbons for bows and trims that need to make more of a statement. Having the three widths side by side makes it easier to match ribbon to project rather than compromising on one size for everything.

Why choose this ribbon

This 9mm satin ribbon combines a smooth finish with a practical width for detail work, gift wrapping, and garment trim. The polyester construction holds its shape and colour well, and ordering by the metre or by the 25-metre bundle means both small projects and larger production runs are covered.
