Crafty Organization Tip: Ribbon Sorting
written by marieann
I have lots of bits and bobbins of ribbons and cording but I rarely used it because it was tangled and inaccessible. This is a quick and easy project — do it this afternoon!
Materials:
Cardboard scraps
Tools:
Scissors
Instructions:
1. Cut a piece of cardboard approximately 4″ x 8″ (this can vary).
2. Cut a slit near the end of the long end.
3. Stick one end of the ribbon in that slit then wrap around the cardboard.
4. This is my “clever” addition. Wrap another ribbon (cut slit, wrap) on the same piece of cardboard just below it. Repeat until the cardboard piece is full (with as many different ribbons that will fit).
5. Then, to sort these cardboard pieces, I put them into shallow boxes to keep them together organized.
