My new ribbon storage

Ive been a busy bee today!
Makes a nice change I hear you shout!

This is what my ribbons looked like earlier, I hasten to add, this was just the loose cut ribbons, not the reeled ones as Id already done those a few weeks back.


I used scrap card and cut squares of 7cm then punched a half circle from 2 of opposing sides and began to wind the ribbon.  Finished off with a little rubber band, an A4 storage box and this was the result!
