So, I have a little collection of ribbon. My storage solution for the ribbon was not working out too well. I had the rolls stored in these huge, glass jars. But, the ribbon would end up with more off the roll than on and they took up a lot of valuable space in my craft closet.
So, the other day while visiting my parents, I saw that my dad had his pants hanging on these handy dandy hangers. Then I heard my parents having a discussion about how these hangers weren't going to work anymore. Thus enters my vision. That would be the perfect hanger for my ribbon. Yep, that's how my mind works. Always thinking about myself-I mean my craft projects. I have seen similar ideas elsewhere.
So anyway, my mom brought that hanger to me yesterday and this afternoon I sorted through my rolls of ribbon and hung them all nice and a little bit neat (and somewhat color coordinated, too).
I really love a nice basket. They are practical and pretty. I have them everywhere. In my kitchen, I have one under the sink holding my dish towels and in the pantry holding baking supplies. I have a couple that house my magazine addiction-I mean collection. I have some in the bathrooms for toilet paper and hair products (in separate baskets, of course). I have one for laundry supplies and one or two for craft supplies. I have them in drawers to hold pens, paper and such. I think that makes it official - I'm a basket case. I like it when I make myself laugh! Are you a basket case?
