Ribbon addicts, please help!

[gadget19]

I am in serious need of a RAA (ribbon addiction anon). I just signed up for 2 bulk ribbon buys (polka dots and organdy), plus I am waiting on a third striped bulk buy... and I just got done with one swap and signed up for a second (2 spaces per swap). I have a problem... where am I going to store all this ribbon???? Any ideas where I can get empty ribbon spools?

someone posted once that they use clothes pins . . . sounds like a good cheap idea and store them in a pretty glass jar or jars.

and this coming from someone with the SAME addiction and hasn't figured out a system. snort ! but I do have the wire shelves bent and ready to hang for my ribbons. lol

Bulk ribbon stores nicely in SU plastic boxes that stamps arrive in.

Ok, Kelly your avatar is cracking me up here!!! OMG - that's just too funny!

I use the old fashioned clothes pins (doll head kind) for my bulk ribbon. I wrap the ribbon around the pin & secure it w/a small straight pin. I have several large glass jars that I have color coordinated all the ribbon pins in.

I use the 3 x 3 ribbon cards and the 3 x 3 drawers to store mine
