I didn’t really get an opportunity to keep up with my blog this week. So much going on! Between work and home life and a host of health challenges currently, I have barely found time to sleep—let alone anything else! It’s a new week; however, and I am getting into the full swing of things—feeling a bit refreshed and renewed.
I spent some time organizing my craft space. If you are like me, it is awfully hard to get the creative juices flowing when you can’t find anything or don’t have a single 12x12” space available to even work on a project! I decided to tackle my overflowing spools of ribbon, enlisting the help of my husband, to create a more functional storage solution.

I decided to tackle my overflowing spools of ribbon, enlisting the help of my husband, to create a more functional storage solution.
I purchased café rod brackets with a 2” clearance and 3/8” wooden dowels from the local super center. My husband cut the dowels to fit the space and mounted the brackets. Total cost for this storage solution: $22.11 (including tax). I will still need to add on a few more rows to accommodate all of my ribbon stock, but it is certainly a lot cheaper that some of the pre-made storage solutions I found online. If you are looking for a more portable solution or simply don’t have the wall space, check out my friend’s ribbon organizer:
