Target Find!!!!!
 

I went to target today and found a ribbon organizer for only $5.00!
Its'great and cheap. I think I might go back and get another one.

Where at, what isle? What do they look like?

I am in desperate need of something to organize my ribbons.

Ohhhh, can you post a picture? I'm also in desparate need of something to organize my ever growing supply of ribbon. :)

They were on an end cap by the birthday paper and scrapbook stuff.
Here is a picture, I hope it turns out okay

WoW!
How cute is that?
Love it!

Great find!! I hope our Target still has some when I get back to IL. The closest one to my current location is at least an hour away!! Boo Hoo! Maybe my wonderful friends Linda or Lynette will go there for me!!! (Hint hint) Thanks for the picture, it helps to know what to look for!!
Kimilou :P

Hey I have an idea! I could go back to my Target and get the rest of them and then mail them to you. You would be responsible for the shipping.
Let me know if anyone wants me to do that.

What a coincidence...my DH just happens to be at Target right now running some errands...I just gave him a jingle and told him to try to find it for me. I hope it is in the same area of the store where you got yours. I tried to describe it as best as I could...and I told him a price to look for as well. Cross your fingers for me and hope that my DH comes through for his precious wifey. :D

Julie, I would like 3 of them, I miss Target. No target over here in Hawaii.
I pm'ed you.

I have to run to town tomorrow, one more stop will not hurt!

I have a quick question...
Is this holding the typical 25 yd. rolls? I have several of the huge 100 yd. rolls that I got way cheap thanks to the ladies on this board!! Do you think it would fit? I hate to make the trip to Fayetteville if it won't hold all of my ribbon.
Thanks!!
Lisa

Lisa,
I think they would fit but not 100%. Do you have dimensions of the 100 yd?

Thanks for the picture ... I'm going to Target tomorrow and now have a better idea what to look for.

Okay ladies I have five ribbon organizers on hold to pick up tomorrow. Who wants one??? $5.99 each plus s/h

my mom made one very similar for Christmas using a photo box with large gromets

There is a picture on this thread similar to the one my mom made. She even added small eyelets to the end of the box for the smaller widths! She is the best! Got me a storage case for all 48 ink pads and an Ott Lite also!! yeah mom !!!

:D Thanks for posting the picture! Just added Target to my list of stops for tomorrow!

I just sent you a pm. :lol:

Ribbon organizer to make
 

How about making a ribbon organizer similar to the design of the one from Target but using your empty inkpad boxes? hummm I am going to try that. I was just going to throw away my boxes yesterday but kept them for when we move next year. I keep all my ribbon in plastic shoe boxes. hummmmm.... I may make slots in the top of the plastic shoe boxes...Oh I am full of ideas now! (I don't have a Target)

YES!!!! I am soooo glad to be back in mainland USA! There is not a Target in Hawaii, so I feel for you ladies who are still there. I'm putting Target on my shopping list. Hopefully there will still be some!
Great find! :D

Photo Boxes
 

I definitely know what to do with all those photo boxes I've collected (once I get the pictures in the albums that is!)!Thanks for the idea!

I just went to target and looked and looked...and didn't find it...BUT I'm not giving up!

I looked all around the wrap and scrapbook stuff, but did anyone else find it in another place I might try?

Thanks!
Dana

My Targets do not have them yet :(

I found them between the candles and staionary. They are flat and then you have to snap them together. The title on the package says WRAP ORGANIZER. I have a few left if anyone wants me to send them one.

I just got back from Target. I didn't see your picture in time. I couldn't find anything. :( I may have to go back tomorrow now that I know what I am looking for.

The pictures of the ribbon organizer
 

could you repost the picture of the ribbon organizer or PM the picture to me...I would really appreciate it. Our Target may not have it yet, but it's an excuse to go look...lol. thanks.

Another thing you can use for ribbon storage is empty oatmeal boxes. Of course to take one out you'd have to take them all out-unless....you cut a door in the box. I've been waiting til my family eats the rest of the oatmeal. Then decorate anyway you like by attaching decorated wrapping paper.

OH I just got a clever idea!(At least I think) Cut the door in the box. To latch it back, put on a piece of looped ribbon on the door. Then put on a button to hook the ribbon onto. I may just have to empty the oatmeal into a container and try this today.

The larger oatmeal boxes may work for 100yd spools. If not, what about plain plastic containers. You can always attach grommets in the plastic containers.(I have to figure out something since there are no Targets in Hawaii.

Julie,
Thanks for responding so quickly. I got pulled away from the computer last night and am just now checking your post...

The large spools of ribbon are 7.75" in diameter.
Thanks for checking!!
Lisa

(I'll pm you also in case you aren't checking this thread. :wink: )

I found them finally! Thanks for the excellent description and whoever said SUPER Target...that was the key!

It is so weird how obsessed I get on wanting to find something that you guys talk about. Some one says..."this is great"...and all the sudden I can't live without it...geesh!

Dana

I found the ribbon organizer today....and love it! Mine was a little difficult to snap together, but my husband helped me out. There were two in my package. I nearly did not find them as I forgot that they are packaged flat. Thanks for the tip!!

I am THERE! Thanks for posting this. I've just re-organized my office space and my ribbon always laughs at me!!! Now I'll get it under control.

THANK YOU! I'm going to hit every TG in town to find them!

Thank you SOOOOO much for posting this!!! I went to Target and got one and I LOVE it! I'm going to go out and get a couple more. I have been wanting a good ribbon organizer and this is definitely going to do the trick.

:D :D :D

I went to another Target tonight and couldn't find them. I asked a couple of people who worked there and they looked at me like I was an alien so I left!!

I am bummed!

I HAVE TWO RIBBON ORGANIZERS LEFT IF ANYONE WANTS TO BUY THEM FROM ME.
I WILL ACCEPT CHECKS AND PROPAY.

I want them!! My Target does not have them!

I found them this morning!!!! I looked and looked and was about decided I wasn't going to get one. And then just sitting on a end cap shelf were 2 packages. Thanks Julie for describing the packaging so well. I was on the look out for the red. I just put one together and it is so cool. But what I am wondering is this - did you actually get 2 organizers for 5.99? Mine were 2 packages together in another package. Did I hit the jackpot or did yours come 2 in a pack? Now I have 4!!! Yippee!!

Thanks for the Target Alert!!

lucky you
 

No you hit the jackpot! I only had one in mine. Darn it...

i've been to two Targets in town w/o success. Boo Hoo!! I've even dreamt about them last night!! Did an internet search and found some nice wooden ones for $40. Went to Target.com again w.o success. Then I tried everyone's favorite EBAY!!! And I found it!! Granted I'm going to keep searching my local Target stores but I thought I would share the Ebay notice with you! One - it has an actual picture of the box (scroll down to the bottom of thte listing) Two - I thought it would be fun to watch how high a price she gets on this item!!!

Just to let you know - I FOUND IT!! Went back to Target today & there they were. Must be a new display!! So excited!! So keep looking at your local Targets- They should be coming soon!!!

I got one, too! (well, three) They are awesome! Remember, flat package on end cap near gift wrap and stationary. Don't give up hope, ladies.
