hair ribbons prt1

 so i went to ac moore looking for ribbon for my hair, since 90% of the time it's in some sort of pigtails things. i also wanted specif colors since i'm a super huge sailor moon fan and wanted to do some makeup looks foreach sailor scout, and also other fantasy/cartoon/character looks. i made a list of the colors of each scout (mainly two/three colors). my main goal was to get about 4-5-6 feet of each color, since i use two strands for my hair, one for each, and one for a ribbon necklace to match my hair(this started in high school with my teal ribbon necklace). when i went there, the spools of ribbon, which were like 9 yards were .50¢ each. but i had many colors to get(these colors are my own opinion, i went by pictures):
sailor moon:red-blue-yellow
mercury:light blue-medium blue
mars:red-medium purple
jupiter:pink-medium green
venus:orange-medium blue
uranus:dark/navy blue-yellow
neptune:teal/green-dark blue
pluto:black-red/maroon
saturn:purple-black
mini moon:-pink-red
tuxedo mask:red-white-black
the colors i had were black, maroon, purple, my teal necklace, green, light blue, dark blue, and silver. so i had SO many colors to get. even with the ribbon on sale, it was still going to be more then i wanted, and i didn't need 9 yards. by the ribbon sale, there was a value pack, $9.99 for 18 colors, 4 feet of each. this had most of the colors i needed, but i still needed the .50¢ colors. i think it was about $15-18 for my ribbon lot. i still need to heat seal them, so the ends don't get funky. i'll be posting them by color family since thats how i organized them.
the ribbons below i've have forever and are longer than the rest, since these would be used for special occasions. the silver is from xmas, the green/black is from a prom long ago that i still use. these i can actually tie in a bow on my pigtails if i feel extra fancy/sassy.
