Thats how I have my ribbon and floss stored too! It does work very well. Last year Hobby Lobby put all their ribbon on sale 50 % off plus they had many colors and styles on clearance even cheaper .........I bought a bunch divided the rolls into fourths, wound them on plastic and put them in plastic organizers which were also on sale. and gave them to my sister, SIL and friend Jess for Christmas and had one left over for myself. :O) It turned out being a very inexpensive gift, about $5.00 per person and I know they really liked it. (It was much cheaper buying ribbon by the roll......but a whole roll is way too much for one person to use scrapping......It also was cheaper buying ribbon in the sewing department versus the scrapping section. The selection was just as nice.)
very pretty. I love my ribbon on the pegs in the glass jar- but I see the advantages to this too - especially it's FLAT and stackable :) The thumbnail looked intriguing - never guessed it was ribbon - I thought maybe the sock drawer LOL ... ribbon is much more interesting LOL
Oh they look so pretty too! I have my embroidery floss wrapped like this and I love it. They are much neater and easier to find. And, by the way, is that a ribbon obsession? :)
Oh how I envy you! My scrapping stuff is a disaster right now! I have got a lot of new goodies and need to find the best way to store them! Your stuff looks so neat!
It took me so long to get organized? I love this system! All of my ribbon and embroridery floss is in one place, along with my new stitching templates. It's so easy to find what I am looking for! It did take a while to wind all the ribbon but my FIL was here over the weekend so I had lots of time to work on it. This is just a 12x12 sterlite 3 drawer unit, the ribbons are wrapped around matte board and the dividers are also matte board held down with packaging tape. It was so easy and best of all cheap!
I got the idea form a craft blog~ craftystorage.blogspot.com
