cut about another 1.5 inches of your ribbon, and then cut length-wise, giving you two strips .75 inches wide, 1.5 inches long

on your bracelet ribbon, hot glue the ends, and then fold in so that the ends of your wristlet now are about .5 inches wide

glue your two smaller ribbons to the ends, so that you have a finish look

cut two pieces of your velcro to fit on your ends, then glue one on the top side of your bracelet, and the other on your bottom side
