Do I have your attention? I thought so. Well, as many of you know, Dave, The Stamp Slave, is in Haiti for a couple of weeks volunteering as an Emergency Room Nurse. He went there a year or so ago after the earthquake and the Lord provided another opportunity for him to go again for 2 weeks.
What does Haiti have to do with a ribbon holder you might ask. Well, I have quite a few rolls of ribbon that I haven't been able to store. I didn't want to buy more holders since we live in an apartment right now and don't have a lot of space. Usually I would hit up Dave to make me something, but since he's gone I had to be creative. Look what I came up with! (I have never seen this anywhere else, so if you came up with this before, I guess great minds think alike…ha!)
I used a wire coat hanger that was forlornly hanging in my closet (hence, the "free" ribbon holder"), untwisted the wire part at the top, loaded my spools of ribbon, (17 to be exact) and then bent each end over my shelf and…voila!
So, not only am I now your favorite Stampin' Up! Demonstrator, I am your favorite Bargain Idea of the Day person, too…lol!
Don't forget that our BOGO – Buy One Get One Free Designer Series Paper special ends on August 31st! You can order 24/7 at my online store. But, I don't sell coat hangers to use for ribbon so you will have to raid your own closet to make one.
Happy Stamping!
