Wide organdy ribbon - FRAYS so easily!

[BostonGirlStamps]

How do you keep your wide organdy ribbon from fraying? I cut mine on an angle but it still frays SO easily... So, do you have any tricks that you use?

I use fray check from Michaels (or any sewing place). I only use it if it frays...just a dab will do you...very cheap ...

I just always use excess so that it goes on the back of my paper. That way, the fraying is invisible. I wonder if you could use a light layer of glue or CE or something even heat emboss with clear EP. Anyone ever tried that?

I tend to cut mine with a V in the end. It doesn't seem to fray as badly. I've also heard that you can brush the end with a little glue to "hold" it.

Fray-check addict here. I use it on every single ribbon end. Seriously.

I just wanna know about the Fried Rabbit. Has anybody tried that? ;)

Thanks all - I'm off for some fray check! (not to be confused with fried rabbit, Julie!) ;)
