\nOften the simplest ideas are the best and in this case I have yet to find a better solution. For years I\u2019ve tried a variety of methods to keep my ribbon organized; color coordinated, seasonal or event synchronized \u2026 I\u2019ve tried drawers, boxes, baskets, wall devices with long dowels, even boxes that claim to do just that \u201corganize my ribbon\u201d<\/strong> but it inevitably ended up in a tangled mess. Needless to say none were effective enough or easy enough to maintain once organized \u2026.. until this inexpensive approach:<\/p>\n

Step 1: <\/strong>purchase a metal five rung pant hanger; it had foam wrapped around the rods that made the rod too thick to hold the ribbon spools so I cut it off.<\/p>\n

Step 2:<\/strong> separated the ribbon into seasons i.e. Christmas, spring and then into colors; darkest to lightest.<\/p>\n

Step 3:<\/strong> label each metal hanger with some extra closet organizers and there you go!<\/p>\n

It\u2019s always neat and easy to use, when the spool is empty remove and replace with a new one.<\/p>\n
