The Messy Roost: Ribbon, Ribbon, and More Ribbon

I needed ribbon to finish my kids Valentine's this year, and, what a mess they are. Remember this? It is still awesome. and, I use it all the

time.

You can see it HERE. I, however, have a lot more ribbon than storage

places on that rack.

YIKES. This is what I started with. A tangle of ribbon and lace.

I gathered up the loose ribbon and taped it onto a toilet paper roll. For those fly away pieces, I used a hair pin to hold it in place.

Then I sorted all the ribbon by color. I have a lot of themed ribbon (i.e., Christmas, Halloween, etc.), so, I put that together in a container. Then, I have some doubles, and, my lace. I put them in another container.

I tried to put like colors together on a rod.

I got this package at Michael's when I made my Ribbon Rack. I think they are large sucker sticks.

Those Dowels, fit perfectly through the holes. I fit four rods in there.

The loose ends of the ribbon, I threaded through the holes on the side of my Dollar Tree container I have had forever.

Put a label on it and sat in on top of the other two bins I have in my laundry room. I will show more pictures of that after I organize it, yet AGAIN. My kids always ask me why I have to reorganize the laundry room and the pantry. My reply is always YOU.........

My ribbon and I are so HAPPY.

Thanks for stopping by.

XOXO
