That is what I do! I make a little hole in the ribbon with my woodburner, thread the brads partway through, and dab a little glue between the head and ribbon before pulling it all the way through (the glue keeps it in place, especially if I need it to face a particular direction). On the other side, I cut the brads short enough that they won't be seen past the edges of the ribbon and then bend them flat against the head like they're intended. Then I glue the strip of ribbon around a clippie or around the bow if it's being used as a center like normal.
It's super sturdy and WON'T come off - believe me, I've tried pulling! I can even pull off E600 stuff, so threading the brads through the ribbon so there's extra hold makes me feel better about them being put into little kids' hands.
