    The simple and easy way for crafters - Ribbons, String and Tape Storage... the best part is that it is cheap and uses everyday things around your home!

    Ribbons, String and Tape Storage

    When you wrap a present, do you rummage through drawers to find the tape, ribbon and string?

    I have two drawers at home that contain cards, wrapping paper and ribbons, ready for when I need to wrap a present ( or when you find that birthday invitation in your child's bag and the party is TODAY!!!... You know that feeling...).
     .. and it only cost me $1.00 ...yes $1.00 !! ( And here's the proof)
    This is a simple solution that puts all these things in one spot and is easy to use....

    DIY Ribbons, String and Tape Storage

    Ribbons, String and Tape Storage

    The basket has holes in the sides which is perfect to thread through ribbon and string. The trick is to make sure that the ribbons can roll on a bar/rod, so you can just pull on the ribbon you want and it comes out easily.

    The tip to Ribbons, String and Tape Storage!

    To finish off the basket, I needed the rod for the ribbons . After a little bit of searching at home I found the perfect thing... Chop Sticks!! 

    They fit the length of the basket and the ribbons could roll on them.

    To make sure they didn't come out I used hair ties (you would probably use rubber bands but could only find hair ties at my house...)  and I wrapped them around each end of the chop stick (or you might use a piece of dowel/rod) then I thread the ribbon rolls on!

    Ribbons, String and Tape Storage
    This is such a simple storage for Ribbons, String and Tape ... too easy!!!!
    Just perfect when you need to wrap a present, grab some string or need tape.
    Ready to go, all in one spot!
    🙂

      I love this idea! It's sounds so quick and simple to put together, my ribbon is stuffed in a draw right now but I'm going to do this 🙂
