I think we’ve all been loving ribbon and collecting it for long enough now, that we’re all in search of innovative ways to store it. So anytime I see a cool idea, I will try to pass it along.
This is from rhiansmom on 2peas message board:
Here is the LINK to the topic.
She said it’s a strainer she got on sale & she has each ribbon kind of rolled up close to the hole it’s coming out of. I don’t have quite that much ribbon yet, but I will keep this in mind for the future. I do love to buy ribbon so you never know. There seems to be two kinds of ribbon storage – the super neat, untangled but time-consuming to put away kind and the messy, sometimes tangled but never crimped, easy to put away kind. I’m always in a rush so I vote for the first kind, but I can see how something “messy” like this would drive some of you crazy. And if you have a cat………forget it.

Right now I just have tubs full of ribbons still on their spools, this is a great idea! I don’t think it is quite for me, but it is a great idea! I’m totally blog rolling you. I love your blog! I’m hoping to start a card blog soon. I think of cards as smaller more manageable scrapbook pages.
I love this idea!! I have ribbons coming out of my ears. Any time I see it on sale I have to buy tons!! My paper bag books might start getting called RIBBON BOOKS!! Thanks for all the great write ups! You always have great products for us!

It looks great. But doesn’t the ribbon get tangled up inside Erika?
Hey Karen ~ Rhiansmom said it does get tangled sometimes but it’s better than the way she had it before, with rolls thrown into a basket. Lesser of two evils kinda thing…
Hi ladies. I was just searching the net for high-volume ribbon users and saw your blog. I am looking for a few people to test a new ribbon storage product. I will send it out free to you and you test it and email me back with your feedback. Easy as pie. If you are interested, send me an email!
I guess I should give you my email unhidden!

Hi Melissa ~ I will take you up on that offer! I hope other ribbon gals will too. How can we resist? I checked out the product on your website and it looks cool. Thanks :)
