Poor Girl's Ribbon Organization ;)

Hi Everyone!True :D here.
It is my turn to share how I organize my ribbon for our organization week fun!
I used to use a cafe rod to slide my spools of ribbon on and it worked great until I started on the RRR design team and my ribbon "hoarding" got worse/better, depending on if it's hubby's view or mine. LOL!Those little cardboard rolls take up a lot more room then you think!I now have 2 cafe rods full of ribbon. I am only showing the one with the RRR ribbons though since they are the prettier ones! ;)

I have the rods between my fabric cabinet and a door jam and it is held up with tension...no nails or screws. :)

Since the door is almost always open, the ribbons are behind it and protected from light.

I string yard long lengths (I loop longer pieces as needed) on to large safety pins, by color and hue then run it through a key ring and slide them on the rod. It is very easy to see everything I have at one glance! :)

I have other methods that I use to store special types of ribbon and I hope you will come visit my blog to check those out. You could also get a chance to win one of them! :)

Thanks so much for joining us in our organization week!

If this is the first visit since we started, I hope you will scroll down and see Jacque's organization post from yesterday.

You will also want to check back daily until we are through on 3/16. Some of the girls will be showing how to organize with Clip It Up, The Ribbon Spooler, and The Ribbon Ring who are all sponsoring us this week. Others will show home-made methods as I did. 

 There will be some awesome prizes donated by our wonderful sponsors at the end! :)

The design team will also be sharing on their personal blogs, and showing how they organize with some of the items from our sponsors. One of our sponsors even donated items for us to give away on our blogs too but you will have to come visit us to enter. :)

Thanks for dropping by!

We would love to hear how you keep your ribbon organized! :)

Hugs,

True :D
