We’re giving our readers the opportunity to review a new piece of kit, be it a new tool or new stash.  This issue Cazzy tells us about her new Making Memories Ribbon Tag Curler.

This is a tool you don’t often hear about but I came across on an American site while searching for something else, and just had to try it! It is a joy to use and adds something special to your  projects.  The tool comes in a soft black drawstring bag, with full instructions that I have to look at each time to remind myself which way round the tag goes!

The tool folds down and clips together for storage and opens when you want to use it.

To add a tag to a ribbon you first put the tag in the curler, point facing the M.

Then you thread your ribbon through your project, and place both ends across the tag in the Tag Curler.  Squeeze the Tag Curler handles together and your tag is attached but make sure it is going to end up the right way round before squeezing!

Ribbon with finished tag.  Tags are available in silver metal as shown with packs of several different sentiments or cut out shapes - I used a “Happy Birthday” tag on this card. You can also buy enamelled tags to use with this tool.  You can get this tool in the UK now and I’m sure it is going to be popular.
