One use is for threading buttons into sets instead of using wool. I always find the wool catches and does not thread through the button hole easily. With the curling ribbon, you cut it in half with a point on the end and then it will go in almost any button hole so easily.
Though I mainly use it as curling ribbon packaging. Why do I like it so much - because it can be reused many times over.

Cut the bow up into strips and start curling with scissors. Half way there! |
Finished product with no sign of what it used to be like. |

Cut the pieces and curl to get a new look! |
Another crinkled bow. Cut into strips and curl. |
Voila!! |
