If you’ve got a stack of horse show ribbons tucked away in a drawer, you’re not alone. Those ribbons tell the story of early mornings, long days, and (hopefully) great memories — so why not create a horse show ribbon display you’ll actually love to see every day?
Why Make a Ribbon Shadow Box?
In my latest video, I show you how to turn old ribbons into a horse show ribbon display you’ll actually love: an elegant shadow box that looks stylish and personal, not cluttered.
Why this works:
- Celebrate your memories: Show off your hard-earned ribbons instead of hiding them.
- Elegant and unique: Each display tells your story as a rider.
- Easy & affordable: Looks polished without spending a fortune.
Creating a Horse Show Ribbon Display You’ll Actually Love
A horse show ribbon display you’ll actually love is more than just a DIY craft — it’s a way to celebrate your journey as a rider. Instead of hiding your ribbons away, you can transform them into meaningful wall art that keeps your memories front and center. Whether you have just a few special ribbons or dozens from years of showing, this project helps make your achievements part of your everyday space — stylish, personal, and uniquely yours.
Simple DIY Steps
You don’t need fancy tools — just:
- Your favorite horse show ribbons
- A shadow box (from a craft store or online)
- Pins, glue dots, or fabric backing to hold ribbons in place
- Scissors and a wire cutter
Arrange your ribbons thoughtfully to avoid a crowded look, and play with depth and layering so the final piece feels balanced and intentional.
