Guest LGsDD Posted September 23, 2016 Report Posted September 23, 2016 What colour blue is everyone using out of interest?
HeCallsMePrincess Posted September 24, 2016 Report Posted September 24, 2016 I'm going to try making friendship bracelet type things in pink and blue instead of ribbon. Think it will have the same effect?
sighing Posted September 24, 2016 Report Posted September 24, 2016 I'm going to try making friendship bracelet type things in pink and blue instead of ribbon. Think it will have the same effect? "Friendship bracelets are such an awesome idea! However I don't think they will be looked at in the same light as the ribbon. The ribbon itself is the "signal" to the community and the specific colors are strictly to "announce" who you are. The friendship bracelet is such an amazing idea. I just can't promise that if you are making it for the purpose of CG/l Ribbon Awareness Week it will be recognized as such. If you are looking for other ideas on how to make a ribboned bracelet that isn't just a piece of ribbon, visits the official CG/l ribbon awareness blog to get more ideas! www.tumblr.com/blog/cglgribbonweek" - Bree
HeCallsMePrincess Posted September 24, 2016 Report Posted September 24, 2016 Well I used beads too. DD for his and LG for mine so probably easier to spot now. Not that I expect many around here. I can always add ribbon later I'm sure.
Lil' Miss Dolly Posted September 25, 2016 Report Posted September 25, 2016 I have spent 2 days working on this. Made a bunch of ribbons trying to fine one I like lol this j I might just wear my pink "fearless" and just an L one it

LittleJulieBean Posted October 15, 2016 Report Posted October 15, 2016 Is this going to happen for October too?
Baby_squirrel Posted October 15, 2016 Report Posted October 15, 2016 I think so! I'll be particpating for October, if I can remember. I hope someone bumps the post as a reminder.

Bxby.qween Posted October 17, 2016 Report Posted October 17, 2016 So practically on the day of Christmas?And then when New Years hits we take them off ok cool got it
Little Illy Posted October 18, 2016 Author Report Posted October 18, 2016 @bxby.qween - I'm not sure if I am reading your intended tone? Is the timing a problem? And if so, I'm sorry it just kinda is how it lined up. It wasn't intentional.
Princess Joe Joe Posted October 18, 2016 Report Posted October 18, 2016 Crazy story that I meant to post last month, but my wifi went down and I totally forgot until this got bumped!! Me and my Daddy were wearing our respective ribbons one day, and we went to Walmart to get some Halloween buckets and candy so we could stock up a month prior to the actual holiday. I was reaching out to grab a bag of candy when this lady tapped my shoulder. I turned, expecting some rude look to be going my way since I had been standing there looking at candy for a good fifteen minutes. Instead, though, a lady with a purple ribbon on her left wrist was smiling at me and she very simply pointed to my own ribbon asked," Is that for awareness or decoration?" To which I replied awareness, since I figured only someone in the community would know this. She then laughed and twisted her own ribbon and asked if I would like to meet her own little girl! I was so excited, and after a while, a play date was set up! So thank you! This might seem like it's not making much of a difference to you maybe, but I assure you it did. It reached all the way to my little town, and because of it I made two awesome new friends! Xoxo 3

Thank you so much for sharing this! @PrincessJoeJoe can I share your story on the official RibbonWeek tumblr?
LittleJulieBean Posted October 19, 2016 Report Posted October 19, 2016 I have come across a problem.... I can't tie a pretty bow with the ribbon while it's on my wrist... and I can't tie it off my wrist and then put it on cause there's already a knot in it .... help!
LittleJulieBean Posted October 19, 2016 Report Posted October 19, 2016 Also is anyone else nervous about the week?
Princess Joe Joe Posted October 20, 2016 Report Posted October 20, 2016 Yes you can!! And awe I'm sorry I usually have my Daddy tie all my bows. I wish I could help you.
Little Illy Posted October 20, 2016 Author Report Posted October 20, 2016 @LittleJulieBean - maybe sew a ring at the end and a bracelet clasp. I did that and use a crochet hook to hold the ring in place so I can latch the ends together. ^.^
Caring King Posted October 23, 2016 Report Posted October 23, 2016 This should be on ifunny, where it should get a lot of attention- but at the same time there's a lot of anti-ddlg ppl on there who think its about pedophillia, and the thought of a member of ddlg being exposed to an anti-ddlg group terrifies me. I really want this to be seen by as many people in the community as possible, but how can it without it getting into the wrong hands? x.x
IndigoSea Posted October 23, 2016 Report Posted October 23, 2016 Just wondering, did anyone actually end up finding likeminded souls in their communities through this situation? Sounds so cool!
