How to Use Spool & Store Ribbon Storage

by

I hope you enjoyed that video!  Isn’t that Spool & Store cool?  I thought so! 🙂

ADDED INFO ABOUT THE SPOOL AND STORE:

I had some questions about this system so here are some answers… I measured the individual containers and they are 5 5/8″ long, 1 1/4″ high and 1 3/4″ deep.  Here’s some info from their site: Each Ribbon Dispenser has 6 compartments (7/8″ wide) which will hold up to 4 yards of ribbon, depending on the thickness of the ribbon.

Happy Crafting!

  4. That is a nifty little thing!! I have been searching for a ribbon storage something or another! I think this will be perfect cant wait get one!! Thanks for sharing Joy!

  5. I think I like this!!! My ribbon is just in a box (no eyelets!). Might help solve my problem! Thanks for sharing!

  6. I need one of these. Not only does it keep your ribbon organized but they will take up so much less space since you don't have that big empty space in the middle of the roll.

  9. I've been looking for something for my ribbons! And this is nice and compact. Thanks for sharing!

  10. That is too cool! I just have all my ribbon stored in a plastic storage bag (a set of sheets came in it) but this would take up way less space. Santa, are you listening? LOL!

  11. Super cool. great idea. Also I want my name to be linked to my new blog but I can't see where to change it. Help? http://happyscrappn2.blogspot.com/

  15. Ok I went and PAID ATTENTION this time to the video.. ok you didn't drop enough ahhaha and you needed to drop it from like a higher place.. what if fell off the top of the car.. how does it land on asphalt? huh . .. enquiring minds.. ahhahahahhahahahhaha they almost Joy-proofed the container. That's my great laugh for the day! I do like to pretend I'm organized. TFS!

  18. I really like this and it looks like it doesn't take up a lot of room so great Thanks for showing us this Teri teri.barefoot@gmail.com

  19. now that looks like a useful product! I made a photo box ribbon storage unit based on your tutorial, and the thing that is not so good about it is that you can't see how much ribbon is left... I may have to get these, then use my box to store those plastic containers in it!

  20. HAppy All Hallow's Day !!! I am so excited about the smiley cartridge, but am more excited that after 9 months i have finally linked my gypsy to my E, now i can learn to weld to make those fantstic shaped cards, I think my 1st one will be a cornucopia and send it to my 103 yr old Great Aunt...Thank you for all you do on your blog to teach us !!!

  22. I cant watch the video at work but I will check when I get home- just wanted to say Im super excited to see what November crafts bring!

  25. Thanks for the video showing how this storage system works. I need this or something like it because I think it will take a lot less space and be a lot more organized.

  26. Thanks for sharing, Joy. You are so funny and down to earth. I love watching your videos and learning about new ways to help me stay more organized and to be more creative! Thanks!

  27. I have my ribbon spools on a skewer, but this is not working well for me... this however looks like it could solve a lot of problems. Thanks!

  30. Thanks for showing! That will take care of a few Christmas presents I need to get. Oh, and one for me, also. Janie

  32. Thanks for the great review of the Store and Spool. It looks like it works very well. Can't wait to see what you have planned for the 12 days of Christmas! TFS!

  33. Thanks for your video review of the Store and Spool! It looks like a good way to store and take along ribbons.

  34. Would be great except I have TONS of ribbon!! I would need a boat load of these things!! I'm addicted to Ribbon and Paper and Bling and everything else!!

  35. This looks pretty cool. I don't have a lot of ribbon, but what I do have is a mess! Thanks for sharing this!

  36. I bought one of these ribbon winders at the Scrapbook Expo and all I can say is I LOVE IT!!! I had so much fun winding my ribbon that was all I did one afternoon.

  37. I just made a ribbon box using the photo box like you had! Hopefully I don't drop it!! :)

  40. I don't have much ribbon, this would be great to start off using right away to save time later. Thanks for sharing!

  43. I really like this device. I am adding it to my Christmas Wish List. By the way, your video made me laugh!

  45. I love your video's - thanks for demonstrating this tool. Might be added to my Christmas list this year ;)

  46. Thank you for sharing this neat tool. I'm going to the website right now. I have ribbon EVERYWHERE. What a great solution.

  48. Hey, Joy! Just watched this video and the system looks like a good deal! However, I loved your photo box system, too! As for it falling apart when dropped, how about two large rubber bands crisscrossed over the closed box? Easy to remove when you want to add/remove the ribbon, but keeps the lid on if dropped. Just a thought... Have a great day! Blessings to you!

  49. That is a pretty neat storage box. I have been wanting to organize my ribbon and sort of looking around for the best storage solution. Right now my ribbon is just sitting in a plastic container. I will have to go visit their website and check it out. Thanks for sharing!

  50. I go to your blog consistently to look for ideas and expecially appreciate your cricut app, list and how to videos. Thank you for giving me these opportunites!
