So, a while back my hubby built me a bar for all of my spooled ribbon. It's fantastic, and I get lots of usage out of it, BUT it doesn't work for the shorter lengths of unspooled ribbon I buy. I have lots of shorter lengths (5 yard) of my favorites (May Arts Chevron Twill, and lotsa twine!), and I'm horrified to say they inhabited the dreaded ribbon bin.
Oh, it was awful. How on earth was I to find anything in that mess? Enter the Ribbon Carousel. I sat down with a bag of spools, and wound up all the pretty ribbon and loaded it up, and NOW look at it! SO PRETTY!!! And organized!
I LOVE that it matches my shelves, and looks so darn pretty and feminine. So much better than the mess I had before. It's like I can shop in my own stash now!
I found things in my ribbon bin that I had no idea I owned, and I'm really looking forward to using lots of ribbon in my Christmas present packaging!

What a difference the carousel makes! Much easier to find things, I bet!!
ReplyDeleteSo pretty, neat & tidy!
ReplyDeleteI have a box of ribbons, etc,, that look exactly like your before picture! And, it is very frustrating trying to find just the right ribbon. Thanks for the chance to win one of these fabulous storage units!
ReplyDeleteWhat a pretty way to organize ribbon, would look great sitting on my craft desk
ReplyDeleteThese are just gorgeous! I desperately need one because of my stash! Thanks for the chance to win one!
ReplyDeleteVery well organized ribbon carousel!! I know exactly how you felt...I would have to dig through boxes of ribbon to find one every time I needed a bow on one of my cards. I still have them in boxes, but at least separate boxes by color. It would be wonderful to have one of these carousels to organize my favorites!!
ReplyDeleteThe wooden spools are a great idea for the Ribbon Carousel - what a great way to organize ribbon - I am hoping I win one = I would be so blessed and it certainly would get my ribbons, Washi Tape, and Twine in order - thanks for the opportunity to win! Enjoy your day!
ReplyDeleteIt DOES look pretty!
ReplyDeleteThis looks like a great organizer looking at your blog now.
ReplyDeleteThis is one of the coolest ribbon storage I have seen. I love how you can take one look and you can see which ribbon you would like to use.
ReplyDeleteI am loving the before and after pictures on this hop! I don't feel quite so bad for being only semi-organized! I'd love to win a carousel!!!
ReplyDeleteThose wooden spool not only hold all those random ribbons, but they look SO PRETTY too! WOW! Thanks for the chance to win!

ReplyDeleteYour before picture is my now picture; stuff everywhere, entangled with one another that finding what I'm looking for a major challenge! Looks like RC is the perfect remedy! Thanks for sharing!

Oh... My... Gosh!!! I didn't even know these ribbon carousels existed until today - what a beautiful and handy item! I need one of these SO badly - maybe even two or three! LOL! I have so many ribbons stored in various locations - loosely, in Ziploc bags, plastic containers from the deli, jars... it's sad! Winning a carousel would be the best gift I'll receive this Christmas - thank you so much for the opportunity to win one!!!
ReplyDeleteI love that you can leave the spools on the carousel and then pull off what you need. It looks like it holds alot of spools too!
ReplyDeleteWhat a great invention! I love that there's a chance to win one. Thanks for showing how useful it is.
ReplyDeletesoooooo pretty! your drawer looks like my grocery bag full of ribbon spools and scraps. i'm in dire need of a new system, and i'm SO inspired by this hop!! :)
