Additional little tip….. when you wind shorter ribbons around the card (when you don’t have them on a spool) write the length of the ribbon on the card and you don’t then have to unwind to find out if you have enough for your project or not
great idea. thanks for sharing.
The camera angle is messing with my perception of your 'level' curtain rod! It's like noooo..... lol
😄I was thinking that too.
Me too!
Me too, lol! Great simple cost effective idea!
I thought it was just me. I can’t do anything in a straight line, and when I saw her rod it looked lower on the left.
Same!
Genius - thank you again!
I like both ideas! I would also add hooks to the lower rod and hang rulers and other light items that I use often.
Great idea!
What a wonderful idea! I've so wrestled with my ribbon spools as well as pieces of ribbon for so long - never finding a good way to store either. This is truly a gift. Thank you so much!
You are so welcome!
This idea would translate so well for washi tape as well! Genius idea! I love seeing these great hacks that not only are incredibly useful and PRACTICAL, but they also are so pretty. I can picture how pretty my washi tape would be adding colour pops along the rack. The other thing I like about this plan is that you can see what you have. I don’t know about you, but I have often bought the exact same pattern simply because I forgot I already had it in my stash. By having everything in front of you when choosing, you can actually save money by avoiding;g those duplicates. Thank you so much, Jan! ❤️🇨🇦
You mean I didn’t have to buy those 3 boxes to hold washi tape? $30 each 😂. I might see if I can work this for my Glimmer foil rolls. I have about 40. At least a dozen rolls of texture tape, or something like that. I bought a holder for that but never hung it. Thanks for your suggestion 🙏🏽
Thanks and you are so welcome
Amazing TIP!!! ❤❤❤❤😊 Thank you so much!!
You are so welcome!
Ribbon is one of my challenges. What a great idea. Thank you
You are so welcome!
Love this storage idea
Thank you!
Thank you especially for the tip at the end regarding cutting & wrapping trim pieces with no spool - much appreciated 💜
You are so welcome
Pins! Genius! They’ll keep ribbon in place for sure! Love it! ❤
Thank you!
Another great tip! Thank you!
You are so welcome
I have Ikea boards for my 5 workstations. My husband says I have enough holes in the walls. LOL 😜So, I use skewers or dowels cut to just shy of the width of my Sterlite stackable drawer containers. I place the spools onto the skewer/dowel by color, add an elastic over one end and stretch it to the other. Place in my bin. This not only keeps my colors together, but it elastic stops the end unraveling off the spool. I guess you could also sort by width of ribbon or type of ribbon if you desire that. If I need red ribbon, I remove the skewer(s) I need and place it back in my drawer when done. As I have many types of crafts I do, I don't always use ribbon so having the ribbon out collecting dust or fading from light is not an option for me.
Some great tips. Thank you
Great idea, love your hair style ❤
LOL Thank you!
Thanks a bunch for this super idea!!
You are so welcome!
I use colorful rubber bands around the spool. Works great.
Great tip!
Brilliant! The ribbon looks great.
Thank you!
As I watched I initially thought, nope. I keep my trims and ribbons in drawers to prevent fading and dust. But I realized one could include a top rod and make a cornice pocket sheer to hang over all ribbons, trims to accomplish what I initially thought was a shortcoming. One could really get creative on the top rod and one could easily spray paint those rods too. I am in the process of reorganizing my sewing and craft rooms, I am going to see if I can use your hint. Thank you for a realistic and economical solution. When it comes to loose ends,why not notch cardboard similiar to how thread rolls work?
Great ideas. Thanks for sharing
Super inexpensive idea! Ty
It really is!
Excellent tip! Now I need to find the wall space to do this. Thank you!
❤ Shirley
You are so welcome!
This is an excellent idea, thank you for sharing.👍💁♀️
You are so welcome!
Good idea!!!
Thank you!
Great idea.I did a similar thing only I used cardboard and attached them inside a cardboard box I decorated. This way I only put two holes in the wall and because it was very light It didn't need a stud either.
thanks for sharing
Fabulous tip for ribbon! Thank you ❤
You are so welcome!
This is great. I love that you have EASY access to whatever ribbon you want to use.
Thank you! 😊
Cool idea. Thanks
No problem!
Thanks Jan!
You are so welcome
Awesome idea
Thank you!
Great idea. TFS
You are so welcome!
thanks. great idea
You are so welcome!
Great idea! I don't like putting holes in my ribbon with a pin, so I use a little piece of blue painters tape to secure the end. It doesn't leave a sticky residue.
I have thought of doing the same thing. Thanks for sharing.
What about using a rubber band to hold the ribbon on?
Cute idea
Thank you!
Those are great ideas, Jan. Thank you 👍🏻
You are so welcome
Gonna do this. Great idea

WOW This is a great tip, I have this on my list to pick up when I go to the store. Thank you so much!
You are so welcome!
Great idea. Please share more
Thanks, and I sure will.
I also have the first organizer you showed. I have the same issues you had. This idea is so amazing and simple. Thanks!
Glad it was helpful!
Thanks for sharing. Love this inexpensive idea.
You are so welcome!
Brilliant! A cost-effective way to organize. I love it!
Thank you!
Great idea! I always love to have my ribbon on display so I can see what I need or don’t need for a project. Otherwise, I buy more ribbon when I find out later I didn’t need to. Thanks for the fun ribbon organizer tip!
I do the same thing.So this method is helpful.
Great, have to see if I can clear up some wall space. Thanks. :)
Thank you! You are so welcome!
Nice
Thanks
This solution is the one for me, I believe! Thank you! 😘
You are so welcome
This is the best idea for storing ribbons. Thank you so much for making this video. ❤️
You are so welcome!
❤❤❤❤❤. You always have such great ideas. This one is easy-peasy! Thanks for sharing! 😊
Thanks. You are so kind!
Love this, mine is a MESS.. thanks Jan
You are so welcome
Thanks for the great idea….now put on your thinking cap and come up with an idea to keep the dust off those ribbons. Can’t wait to see what you come up with. Yours ideas always inspire me.
I've been thinking about it LOL
Brilliant! Wish I had seen this before I bought those shoe racks to store ribbon.
Thank you!
Awesome idea!!! I just bought the same ribbon organizer from Joanns that you have!!! I will be returning it. Thank you for sharing your ideas!!!
You are so welcome!
Thanks for sharing this I have had some messes with ribbons
You are so welcome!
YeS!! A ribbon saver! I have been brain storming this past month on how to hang my ribbons. Nothing was working and "wah-la!" Thank YoU!❤
And I have subscribed !🎉😊
Awesome. Glad it was helpful
All of this is the best I have ever seen 🌞🌞
Thanks. You are so kind
Thanks l
You are so welcome!
On my tablet ❤
You are so welcome
I also use small pins to secure my ribbon. I’ve been doing it for years, and it works great!
That is awesome!
Genius idea - it does solve all the problems except for one big one. That would be me actually working with and using up all the spools of ribbon I have neatly tucked away in plastic boxes - not messy. That is because they get so messy when I use them that now I just avoid that and they are wasting away BUT you have solved that problem with your wonderful idea. THANK YOU SO!!
You are so welcome!
You just don’t know how timely this is. I had a system but I got my entire basement remodeled into my sewing studio and I can’t find the hangers and dowels I used to use. I like this much better and I already have everything I need. Thank you so much. Blessings.
You are so welcome
Great idea. The pins I use are sequin pins.
That would be cute
I keep the plastic strip the ribbon usually comes wrapped in, and roll it back around the spool and tape the plastic to keep them from unrolling.
thanks for sharing
Very good, mine need doing now. An extra little tip for ironing the scrunched up ribbons........pull them through hair straighteners pretty quick just in case. But works for me.
What a great idea.
Great idea! I put my ribbon on a dowel rod that is supported by a curtain rod bracket on each end. I don't use a lot of ribbon, so it works great for me.
That's a great idea!
Another great idea! Do you have a storage solution for rulers? I have so many rulers and know there must be a better way to store them. Thanks for another great tutorial!
I'm sorry but I don't
Great idea! Btw the projection from the wall is 2.5 inches. Thanks for the link and idea!
You are so welcome!
I couldn’t really see how you inserted the pin into the ribbon spool! I really liked the idea, but don’t know how you placed in in the spool. Love the loose ribbon storage idea, though. I have my loose ribbon in a gallon sized storage bag, which I hate.
Insert the pin at an angle so it doestn't go straight into the spool. You can also use a small piece of painters tape to hold it in place.
Fantastic idea! I don’t have a lot of ribbon yet, but this a great thing to do when I get more. I love the thread holders! Where did you get those? I have a bunch of thread, all tossed into 2 separate small totes, one for polyester and one for cotton. I think your wall holders will be a big help in storing my thread!
I got the rack at Joann
Great idea! Do they try to topple over or off the ends? … I love your haircut, btw! Adorable ☺️
LOL you are so kind. I havn't had any issues with them falling off the ends.
Great idea if you have the wall space. I use Hugo’s Amazing tape instead of a rubber binder or tape to keep my spools from unraveling in the bin I currently store them in. Since I don’t have a dedicated space for crafting/sewing.
Great tip!
Another idea is a shoe caddy (the pocket kind) that hangs up. I just put 2 wreath hangers over my craft room door and hang the caddy from them. I also have bind packages of bias tape and seam binding in one, color cod÷d.
Thanks for sharing.
Nice, never would have thought a curtin rod. ? Does it work with short ones? Thank you.
Yes. There are longer ones as well.
❤

Try a plastic rain gutters from Home Depot or Lowe’s then cap them at the ends. It’s very inexpensive also
thanks for sharing

This is a great idea! I tried to find the link to the plastic boxes with no luck. How do I find it?
geni.us/0Iqkbqu
Great idea! Thank you!
The link for plastic wall mount organizer doesn’t work.
Here is the link. geni.us/0Iqkbqu
Still doesn’t work. It says “something went wrong on our end”
@@amytodd7216 how strange. Are you in the US?
No, I’m in Canada
Elastic around the ribbon will keep on the spool
great idea, thanks for sharing
Get rid of the spools. Wrap ribbon around cardboard and put in a box. It'll take up less than 1/2 the space.
thanks for sharing
Is there anything to prevent the spools from toppling over sideways?
I don't have any problems with them tipping over. But someone out there may have some good tips?
I have used the curtain rods for 3 years now. I wedge a piece of cardboard at the ends to prevent rolls falling off.
Can you do one for fabric?
I have one. Here is the link.

Use a level, folks. Your ceiling may not be level if you just measure down.
true
Would this be able to hold 25yd roll (like Sam's Club ribbon)?
I don't know how wide Sam's club ribbon is. It extends from the wall 2 1/2 inches
@JanHowell they're either 1 1/2" or 2" ribbon. Occasionally, 4" if you can find it.
I can't sea the links we're to get the plastic bins 😢

I use gutter's for all my ribbon 😊 works great!
