Hallmark sells fountain bows made out of a mirage ribbon. I first saw Mike Martinek taking these apart and using them to wrap the shank of his streamer fly. They look very nice and are a little wider than the stuff you get at the fly shop so it is faster to cover the shank of the hook. He coats this with sally hansen and you could also rib it with wire in the opposite direction if you wanted. Would probably make a nice spey or steelhead fly body also.
