For the Love of Ribbons and Organization

So Jill has been going on an organization adventure (a form of her heaven, it's true) with the craft stuff, office papers, and tools.  By the weekend, we will likely have a true update on said organization adventure. 


But for now, I (Jill) just have to share this quick, easy and fun project I quickly did last night when trying to figure out a way to organize a pile of ribbons.

Before we get started, I need to include a:

DISCLAIMER... I have no idea how this will actually work once I actually start using ribbon, but for now, they all have a nice little organized home.


Confession: I have an addiction of saving old containers.  When we moved to our new house, we probably took at least 2 bags of stuff I had been saving to the recycling center since we don't have quite as much space in this new house.  Thankfully, this huge oatmeal container made the cut.






All I did to create this ribbon storage was cut little triangular flaps out of the side of the container and then thread ribbon through.  Repeated that step until I had no more ribbon left.




See the inside is kind a massive mess, so I'm really not sure how functional this will actually be.....






But for now it just looks cute next our new addition, Mr. Piggy.




PS- I am linking up to this  PARTY!!!
