My Handmade Ribbon Box

I was organizing my craft room the other day and I came across two boxes of ribbon and the ribbon was just thrown in there, no organization at all. So i decided it was time to do something about it. Well i had seen ads in craft magazines for these boxes to hold your ribbon on, and the ribbon feeds through the bottom,i really liked the idea, so i began to look for one. Well after going to many craft stores and alot of time looking I came across one at Roberts, but they wanted 60.00 dollars for it and i just didn't want to pay that much. So one day i was in Micheals and i spotted this crate type box, and this fabulous idea came into my head MAKE MY OWN. So I did. It's not as fancy as the 60.00 dollar one, but you know what i like it and it has my ribbon organized and thats what i wanted. The whole project was under 10.00 dollars. Plus I really enjoyed painting it and making it my own.

What a great idea! I've been looking too and figured I would have to make my own too. Thanks for sharing your idea.

Oh, I love it! Now all my ribbon scrunched up in a box just isn't good enough anymore! To my eyes that looks exactly like "Certainly Celery." Great job Tams!
