I got them in the mail but it comes on a spool so I am not sure how long to cut them. Anyone know? I have 50 wands so I don't want to make them too long and run out of ribbon Thanks

does it tell you how much ribbon is on the spool?
Just divide it by 50 and you'll know how long to cut each one... (I think )

Looking at the ruler I think 15 to 24 inches would be a good size. You want them long enough to make the pics look pretty but not too long that they are smacking others in the face. In saying that maybe 18 inches would be good.

Get some ribbon (such as curling ribbon) you have at home and try 2 or 3 different sizes and see which you like best. Yeah I think 26' is way too long.

I think it's 26' because you're supposed to wrap it around so 13' are hanging down - make sense?
