A trip to my local Michael's yielded all this great ribbon out of the dollar bin. Did I need one in every color? Sure! Did I need more ribbon? Can one have too much?
So, from the following pics of my ribbon stash, you be the judge. Go ahead, I can take it!
Exhibit A, Drawer 1: white, cream, yellow, pink, purple, blue, red and orange
Exhibit B, Drawer 2: green, brown, black
Exhibit C, Drawer 3: scraps and loose pieces
Exhibit D, boxes of ribbon pulled to coordinate with paper and embellishment in current projects
Exhibit E, storage boxes by topics such as wedding/anniversary in blue, green, pink and silver/gold, baby boy, baby girl, Valentine's Day, Christmas. Each with coordinating ribbons in their box.
There also is a closet (not shown) that has Halloween stuff. I'll show that when the time comes. (Its my fav!)
Well, that was cathartic.
I sure enjoyed last Wednesday's anniversary party! Lots of cool, inspiring stuff! Thanks to all that left comments here. I
really appreciate it!!!!
Have a wonderful Wednesday!

woops maybe slow down on the ribbon buying...think you have enough now...move on to something new..MS punches?....I am only wishing though they were my stash!
ReplyDeleteOh I so want your ribbon collection - problem with this WOYWW - you start wanting what everyone else has got and at a dollar each - I would have bought them all too!
ReplyDeletei am jealous!!!!
ReplyDeletegoing to michaels to see i they have the pretty designs you got.....I think you should make a ribbon covered journal!!!
I really envy you having a Michaels, I discovered them a few years ago on a holiday and every time we go to USA, I have already prepared a list of things I want and where the nearest Michaels is. Love all that ribbon
ReplyDeleteWow, I think you have more ribbon in one box than I actually own. Does that tell you anything? I love those topic storage bins. A great way to keep things organized (and hide some ribbon, too). Happy WOYWW.
ReplyDeleteoo,oo and more ooooo. I have ribbon envy, I thought I had a lot, seems I don't hahaha
ReplyDeleteOh, yes, lovely ribbons - so organised too. I love them.
ReplyDeleteribbons - fab and $1 even better!.

Lovely diecuts on your desk Kathryn. As for the ribbon weeeeell, I'll just say, if they were in the dollar bin it would have been rude not to get so many LOL love the lacy ones :-)

Wow! Come on over and see MY ribbon collection some day. I have 8 containers filled to the brim, organized (mostly) by color. And do I buy more whenever I see it at estate sales. Why yes, yes I do!!! Ribbon sisters unite!
ReplyDeleteWell, that was cathartic. Made me laugh!! Cathartic for me too - Kathryn, I would hug you if we were neighbours - I thought I had a bad ribbon thing!! You win. But it's a lovely bad thing. ANd I would totally have bought all of th $1 reels, it would have been foolish and rude not to. !
ReplyDeletePhew...that's a lot of ribbon!!
