Once you fall in love with ribbon, as I have, you will have more than you know what to do with.  It needs to be visible and easily accessible or it will be forgotten about.  I bought these green plastic trays at The Dollar Tree, 3 per set, and they work great for storing small spools of ribbon that are frequently being used.

The ribbon can either be left resting over the edge, or pulled through the holes in the tray.  Either way, it is easy to unspool as you are working with it.

Happy ribbon…
