DD, sorry I wasn't on board earlier. I have been up since 0600 this morning but tried to stay busy with other things. Today is the Bridal Shower for future D-I-L so I have been helping the wife get things together.

I can't help it. It's a sickness. Right up there with buying cleaning products.
I have Christmas ribbon, birthday ribbon, Halloween ribbon, all occasion ribbon. And yes, I hate to admit it, but I do re-use ribbon.
Lord help me. :shock:

Pppppssssssst, DD. I save all ribbons and make bows for my Christmas Tree! All kinds, all colors.....but, I don't organize them. I am absolutely amazed at my organized friends.....being ADD allows me to organize about once every 18 mos. I admire your oganizational skilz

Oh honey, if you only knew. These ribbons had been in total disarray for years! Some here, some there, mostly in the same room, but nowhere near organized.

I still marvel at your skilz. If you offered to come organize mine, I would say, "Come over and have a drink with me, let's chat. No, I do not want mine organized. The way they are now is perfect; I know where they are......sorta"

I bought those plastic chests with drawers at WM. The ribbon spools fit pretty well and you can sort of see through them. I didn't go so far as to organize by color, but I did sort of get the Christmas and other holiday ones separated from the all occasion ones.

And I would join you for that drink and chat. The hail with the ribbon.
