DIY Ribbon Storage – Thanks again, Hubby!

Hi Everyone, I have another DIY project to share with you today.  My hubby has been at it again and has designed a wonderful way for me to store my ribbons.  This perfectly accommodates all of the ribbons that I have had stored in baskets, tubs and boxes for the past 5-6 years.  You know what they say, “Out of sight, out of mind.”  Well, that certainly has been true of me with regards to my ribbons.  I tend to need to see what I have in order to use it on a regular basis.  Are you like that, too?

Here are a couple of photos.  I was going to take some close-ups buy my camera battery died.  I will plan to add some more here later.  Click HERE to see  my blog post about my DIY Punch storage. =)  Click HERE to see my DIY Glimmer Spray Storage.   Click HERE to see how I’ve re-purposed a grocery container to store all of my paper flowers. =)

It fits nicely just behind my door and doesn’t interfere with the door opening all of the way (even with the punches).  I absolutely love it.  So grateful to my hubby for taking an idea I had and making it happen.  I sure love that man!  Total project cost:  $10 (He already had a few of the items left over from when he made my punch storage.

It measures 2′ wide x 5′ tall x 3″ deep  The top 3 dowels; which are 1/2″ are removable so that I can change out the ribbons.  Those are my larger spools so I know it will take me ages before I need to do that.  The rest of the dowels are attached permanently and the ribbons just slot on top of the dowels and set in there nicely.  I wanted to be able to remove the ribbon spool entirely when I use it.  So, that works perfectly.

I have a video explaining things it more and showing you a bit closer.  You can view it on my YouTube channel HERE or watch it below.

Thanks so much for stopping by today.  I sure appreciate it.  If you make one of these, I’d love to see it. =)

Have a blessed day!
