Fantastic Ribbons

[Acorn]

They are... well... fantastic!

They sent me an email a few days ago offering 76 cards of fabric covered buttons for £20 - usual price £227.

Oh - and I placed the order on the afternoon of Jan 21st and received it today - Jan 23rd.  Postage was free because it was over £20, but I opted to pay an extra 90p to have them sent 1st class.

They are absolutely beautiful.  They look good on the website, but they are even nicer in reality.  I am going through my clothes in my head thinking about which ones would look good with new buttons.  It's just a shame I hate sewing buttons on, but I think I can cope!

This is not an unusual offer from Fantastic Ribbons, and everything I have ever had from them has been beautiful.

PS, the code was fab19, just in case they have any left.

I’ve just tried this and I have got to the stage of entering my card details without the option to use a voucher,so I m not risking going any further.

Perhaps it’s a good job as I really don’t need these but they look fantastic.

You get the option when you first look at your basket before checking out.

Click where it says 'Use Coupon Code' and a box will appear.

I have used Fantastic ribbons a lot in the past when I was making rosettes as a sideline.......their 25mm satin ribbon was far better than anyone else's and pleated beautifully.   I dont make them anymore (apart from a few specials) as there was no money in it - and it was the very devil to get people to pay up as well!  Brilliant company!

I've just tried and the code still works. If I didn't have sure. huge stash of buttons already I would go for it. Looks like a fantastic bargain!

Well I tried again but nowhere could I find the screen show in Acorn’s photo so I gave up.

I then got an email from Fantastic ribbons encouraging me to use the code.

I then realised I had bought them at full price

One grovelling email followed and then a phone call from the wonderful Keith  who assured me they would be refunding me £207.00 within minutes and I will be getting my buttons.

When you get service like this it maintains your faith in human nature and also means I can sleep tonight.

They're going to look lovely in your new sewing room.

Perhaps a little cork board she can pin them to. Then rearrange them in different little pretty patterns.

Thanks @Acorn, my button hoard is about to quadruple! I'm looking forward to receiving them.

I’ve a feeling that for my next project, I will be looking for fabrics to match my buttons.

[Acorn]

Me too!
