Now we'll do around the top of the bookend. Now, when you cut the end here you might want to put just a tiny bit of the glue, rub that along the end and that will stop any fraying. And now we're going to put again the glue all along the edge and smooth it out so it's nice and smooth and even. When you come here, you're going to go over the ribbon that we've already placed, so you want to be careful that you don't go too far. It is a clear drying glue so if some does ooze out on the side, you won't see it, but it's nice to do it neatly to begin with. It's good to have a damp cloth or something to wipe the glue off of your hands when you want to do the placement. And just place the top ribbon exactly even with the bottom of the bookend and just pat that down firmly and we'll continue on to the other end and trim our ribbon.
