I finally thought of a way to store my ribbon where I could see them easily. I had been saving all my empty thread spools, with the intention of using them to make ornaments with felt and little wooden heads, but then it occured to me today to use them to store my ribbon. I had tons of them, so it worked out great. I actually had just enough to store what I had. I just used Scotch Magic tape and adhered them to the spool, then twisted them around it, and attached a piece of magic tape to keep them in place. For some of the thicker ribbon, I had to use regular tape, but I only had a few of those.
I do better if my things are easily visible, I forget what I have in containers.

Oh, what a great way to keep your ribbons under control, as well as being able to see them. I sure wish I hadn't been throwing away all my spools!! Who knew?!!
