Ribbon Roll Holders

Ribbon is one item that we all use throughout the year.  Ribbon roll holders will keep your spools and rolls of ribbon handy and tangle free.  You will need wooden dowel sticks about half the circumference of your index finger.  They need to be at least that thick so as not to bend with the weight of the rolls of ribbon that will be on them.  Cut a piece of yarn about six inches longer than the dowel stick is long.  Tie one end of the yarn around one end of the dowel stick.  Repeat the process for the other end of the dowel stick.  Hang by the yarn on a nail.

You can put as many rolls of ribbon on the stick as it will hold side by side.  When you need to use some ribbon, just unroll as much as you need and cut it off.  If you need to remove rolls of ribbon, just slip the yarn off of one end, and take the roll you need off.  Put the yarn back on, and rehang.  I hang my ribbon holder at the back of a coat closet.  It comes in handy all year long to have it there.
