ribbon storage ideas

crafty much?  even if you have a small collection of ribbon for gift wrapping or scrap booking, this storage idea is so easy to create and so fun to use.  i can't help it, organized things excite me.

you can find a pant hanger at most local housewares stores and as for that plastic bin, you'll find 4 different sizes in the storage container aisle of, yes i'm about to say it, Wal-mart.  However if you prefer to keep plastic out of your home and choose to support local businesses, you could use a decorative cardboard storage box or wooden storage bin and drill holes in the side.  An even better alternative, ribbon would weave so nicely through a wicker basket.

organizing for your brain type

(click 'read more' to learn the 4 types).  'organizing for your brain type: finding your own solution to managing time, paper and stuff' is a fabulous organizing book by Lanna Nakone.  thank goodness I read this book early on in my organizing career.  a game changer for sure.

there is no one right way to be organized.  just as every person is unique and individual, so is how they function.  how then could everyone be satisfied, work productively and feel good in the same space?  they can't.  and that's why I love this book so much.  click 'read more' below to find out your organizing brain type.
