| It's so easy to see everything. |
Last month I organized all of my bits of ribbons on foam core.
That is working out so well.
I love it! But I still had ribbons
on spools that really had too much yardage to take off and wrap on the foam
core. I had tried using a dowel
system but that wasn’t really working for me. They seem to unroll too easily and also, I like to be able
to just grab a spool and take it to my project, which is sometimes in another
room.
Since I really like to SEE
all my pretty supplies, I came up with this system. SIMPLE! I
stacked them all inside a hurricane globe.
They are neat and organized, protected from dust, very easy to get to and best of all… I can see them all and they are so pretty!

The relatively small size
of the stack makes it manageable.
If I need a spool from the middle or even the bottom, I simply lift off
the hurricane globe, the stack remains stable and I can grab the spool I need
without the stack toppling over or unwinding.
A couple of notes
however…. Be sure you select a
hurricane globe that is wide enough for the spools. Also, if you slip a plate under the entire thing, it gives
it even more stability when you lift off the globe.
