Rows of Ribbons at M & J Trimming

Until this past weekend, a certain other craft store was my all-time favorite for DIY projects.  It will always have a special place in my heart, but I have to confess…I have a new love.

M & J Trimming is a little taste of heaven on earth for me.  With walls and walls of ribbons, buttons, and tassels, this store is filled with inspiration for all things wedding-related.  From invitations, to favors, to napkin rings, DIY wedding projects are oh-so-popular right now.  Not only are they fun, they also can considerably trim your budget.

M & J Trimming is located in the Garment District in NYC.  I was visiting New York last Friday and I had heard so much about this special store (it’s one of Martha Stewart’s favorites, apparently) that I went out of my way to see it.  I walked out with 14 different samples of blush colored ribbon.  It was LOVE.  I used my phone to take the pictures below…

I can’t wait to go back, but in the meantime, I’m spending hours browsing their website.  Honestly, it is just as great as the store — lucky for all of us who live here in D.C.!
