Step 1: Measure your closed fist, add 1 inch, and cut the jacquard and ribbon to that length.
Step 2: Place the ribbon in the center of the jacquard lengthwise about 1/8" from the edges and sew them together.
Step 3: Fold over each end about 1/4" and sew across.
Step 4: Place both sewn edges of the ribbon together and place the clasps over it. Make sure to properly line up the the ribbons and clasps. There should be about a 1/4" of ribbon on either side of the clasp. Protect the clasp with a towel or soft cloth and squeeze it closed with a pair of pliers.
