Appliqued Ribbon Box...


Ribbon securely wound on clothespins


Wool appliqued Ribbon Box

This trinket box is another yard sale find that was "calling out to me."  I have appliqued and embroidered wool panels for this box 
and then secured them to all sides.
The edges are finished with a glass Beaded Blanket Stitch.

My ribbons were always in a jumbled mess.  
Small bits here and there and everything wrinkled...

I now use this box to store my ribbon.  The clothespins are the perfect solution for keeping the ribbon crease free and organized.
Do you have any good ideas for storing ribbon ?
