I have no "room " of my own, so all my storage has to be contained, moveable and creative. And I have to be able to put it away at the end of the day.
This is my solution to the tons of ribbon I had but could not control. I bought these larger size snap tight containers and put a piece of that stuff they make that keeps rugs from slipping on the bottom (to keep the ribbon from slipping around). Then I bought a ton of those little plastic cards that they sell to put embroidery thread on and rolled my ribbon onto them. They are about 1 inch wide (in the center) so most ribbon fits on them. The wider ribbon I just cut a wider piece of card board and roll it on. Then I put little rubber bands around them. There are at least 300 rolls of ribbon wound on to these and now they cannot escape! Much smaller footprint, too.
See open picture and you'll see how it works.
