SQOTD 2/7 Ribbon and Cardboard

I posted this earlier, but it didn't go through for some reason!

So how do you organize your ribbon and chipboard?

I put my spools in plastic tubs tightly so they stay in rows. The smaller left over’s I have recently rolled around old fashion close pens. It works great for now, but I would love to get one of these cute embli organizers with the ribbon on the little bar.

My chipboard I just have in two different drawers, one for my letters and one for shapes. I do need to think of a different solution for these!

I keep my ribbon in an old Tom's cookie jar that use to sit on the counter in my hubby's uncles general store and my chipboard is also kept in a glass jar.

Ribbon in spools I store on a pole in my closet, small pieces are in jars sorted by color, and I have two plastic baskets full of ribbons on cards.

Chipboard I have letters in one basket, shapes in a another, and loose chipboard& other letters are in a hardware organizer (like for storing screws & nails) by letter. My chipboard mini albums are on one of my shelves.

I put my ribbon in those little bags on 2 humongous rings. you find them in the crosstiching floss section at Hobby Lobby. I have tried them all and this is the very best one so far. I love it !
For chipboard, I just put small baskets in my drawer and split them by style.

no organization tips from me...I just have a cart and a drawer that is designated for each,,,,really a mess but that is just me. I stink at organizing.

Shana your awesome! I love your kick back approach! Umm I am thinking the glass jar might be a cute idea. Anyone willing to post pics?

I have ribbon coming out of my ears I have a long curtain rod that the spools are on, smaller scraps are kept in jars. There's also a drawer with them in these things:



My chipboard & flowers are also kept in this box, divided by color, type, & sometimes brand.

I'll take some pics for you Jewels.

Here's a great idea I found via Twitter.
