  9. Cut ribbons to 7 or so inches. Make rolls of 3 larger ribbons and one skinny ribbon. Wrap in the center with the pipe cleaner to make a pouf.

    You will need 13 - 16 poufs to fill the brim. We used two purple or orange rolls and another decorative larger ribbon roll and a narrow ribbon in either black or purple.
