Quality and Appearance

Pros:

  • "It's really good quality and has a delicate look."
  • "This is very rich, silky, and easy to work with."
  • "These are very nice—nicer than they appear in the Amazon pictures. They don’t look cheap."
  • "Absolutely love this leaf trim. I used it to dress up my bedroom lampshades."
  • "Beautiful satin-like look of this dual-sided 'ribbon'. Detailed enough that the leaves have 'veins'."
  • "Nice looking, fabric look, not plastic."
  • "Nice color, looks natural"

Cons:

  • "This was gorgeous but not very realistic looking."
  • "Terrible product! Nowhere near what I expected. Very cheap and garbage."
  • "Very thin and cheap looking."
  • "These do not look realistic at all. They are an unnatural brighter green and even have a slight sheen to them."
  • "Not even a little what i expected, it’s glossy & cheap, i thought it was going to look like real vines :( big thumbs down"
  • "These are smaller then I expected and do feel and look cheap."
  • "It's cheap enough that I'm not gonna bother returning it."

Size and Versatility

Pros:

  • "It is small, yes, as other customers have reviewed it, but I think that's what makes it versatile on what you do."
  • "I have found so many things to do with this vine."
  • "This crafty item could be used for a variety of purposes."
  • "It's dainty but useful. We used it to tie our wedding invitations together to the RSVP card, etc."
  • "I have been tying this ribbon around gifts, balloons and have sewn it into pieces of girls' clothing."
  • "You get a good amount for the price and it’s a nice change from plain ribbon."
  • "It comes with a lot, 252ft. I didn't use the whole roll, but it's a great decor item for future uses."

Cons:

  • "Cute. Much tinier leaves than I expected, but as they look in the picture."
  • "Make sure you realize how small this is. The leaves are about the size of a fingernail."
  • "A bit smaller and shinier than I expected."
  • "This is nice but WAY smaller in size than I anticipated."
  • "It wasn’t one big long strand like I thought it would be. It came in one big ball."
  • "Pretty but smaller leaves than I anticipated and will have to find something else to use them for because what I was thinking won't work with these."
  • "Wasn’t happy with the leaf size at all it looks like I should decorate a Barbie house with them not a Birthday party."

Use and Functionality

Pros:

  • "It worked well for what I used it for but untwisting the strand got a little annoying while on a ladder, burning my fingertips with hot glue."
  • "I used this mainly for balloons at a baby shower and everyone loved the look of the “vines” hanging down."
  • "This garland is beautiful and so easy to work with. Perfect for making small wreaths and filling in on larger ones."
  • "I used these as an accent for a southern style wedding. Paired it with burlap."
  • "I used it as foliage to turn our back pation into 'Jurasic Park' for our kiddos fourth birthday party!"
  • "Love this. Was the perfect fit for wedding decor - I hot glued fairy lights to the vine and wrapped in tulle. Very pretty."
  • "I used it for my sister's baby shower and it was perfect."

Cons:

  • "Arrived wrapped in a ball between the size of a baseball and softball."
  • "I thought I was getting an actual vine of foliage but it is actually ribbon. Completely different from what the pictures looked like."
  • "Ordered this to decorate at my sister's wedding. It was so thin and cheap looking I didn't use it."
  • "My only warning ⚠️ if you are using this product as balloon strings, they get very quickly tangled and are very hard to detangle!!!"
  • "It does unravel a little if you are not careful."
  • "could be better quality... if you tug on them they rip easily and separate."
  • "The leaves do come off if you pull hard enough though. I wouldn't let babies or toddlers play with them unsupervised."
