Adding a beautiful lining to your bag can instantly elevate its style and make it look more professional. One way to achieve this is by using ribbon to line your bag. Whether you have a tote, clutch, or shoulder bag, lining it with ribbon can give it that extra touch of elegance. In this DIY guide, we will show you step-by-step how to line a bag with ribbon.

What You Will Need:

  • A bag without a lining
  • Ribbon (choose the width and color that complements your bag)
  • Scissors
  • Needle and thread (matching the color of your ribbon)
  • Sewing pins
  • Iron

Step 1: Measure and Cut the Ribbon

Start by measuring the inside of your bag. Take the measurements from the top to the bottom and from side to side. Add a few extra inches to ensure you have enough ribbon to work with. Using these measurements, cut the ribbon to the appropriate length.

Step 2: Iron the Ribbon

Before attaching the ribbon to your bag, it’s important to give it a crisp and neat appearance. Iron the ribbon on a low heat setting to remove any wrinkles or creases. This will make the lining process much easier and give your bag a polished look.

Step 3: Pin the Ribbon

Take your bag and turn it inside out. Place the ribbon inside the bag, aligning it with the top edge. Use sewing pins to secure the ribbon in place, ensuring it is evenly spaced and centered. Pin the ribbon all the way around the bag, leaving a small overlap where both ends meet.

Step 4: Sew the Ribbon

Now it’s time to sew the ribbon onto the bag. Thread your needle with a matching thread, and starting at one end of the overlap, begin sewing along the edge of the ribbon. Use a small, discreet stitch to attach the ribbon securely. Continue sewing until you reach the other end of the overlap.

Step 5: Finish and Trim

Once you have sewn the ribbon all the way around the bag, tie a knot to secure the thread and trim any excess. Inspect the lining to ensure it is smooth and even. If needed, give it another quick press with the iron to eliminate any remaining wrinkles.

Step 6: Turn the Bag Right-Side Out

With the ribbon lining now securely attached, turn your bag right-side out to reveal the beautiful finished result. Admire your work, and enjoy the added style and sophistication your lined bag brings!

By following these simple steps, you can easily line your bag with ribbon and transform it into a stylish accessory. Experiment with different ribbon colors and patterns to match your outfits or create a statement piece. Have fun and get creative with your bag lining!
