Ribbon Storage



An idea that turned out to be a success! Yay!  


I can't take up the entire spare room for my crafting paradise.  So I have to be imaginative with my storage. 




I cut 1/4" dowels and spray painted them white.  I bought decorative chain by the foot from the hardware store.  I used shower curtain hangers (from a failed project) to hang the chain from the closet shelf.  





I bought more chain than I needed, however I was able to make use of it.  I had to free up some space and went vertical with my storage.  I used the same shower curtain hangers to hang the orange buckets. 







I also made use of the closet rod by using skirt hangers to hang my cutting mats.

    Very creative and functional. I recently made a ribbon holder out of a wooden crate and dowels, so far so good. I posted it on my blog as well. If you wish, I'd appreciate your feedback. The title is ribbons, ribbons, ribbons http://ohbabyuniquediapercakes.blogspot.com

    Love this! What an excellent way to handle cutting mats. I always lean mine against the wall and of course it ruins them.

    What a good idea. I have used an old net curtain line to hand my ribbons on and have them in boxes too on a shelf. Will maybe post sometime. TFS.
