So....I'm being a bit lazy tonight. My hubby surprised me with starting a Netflix account! I'm super excited since I am always trying to find new movies on HBO. So tonight we are having a movie night - yipee! He chose a movie called Role Models - not sure what it's about but exited just the same.

Nevertheless, I thought I would share my new organization method for my ribbon "problem". Well just the spool organization - I am still working on the single strands! My parents live close to the Offray ribbon outlet in PA and OMG!!!! I go EVERY time I am home - it's a sickness I know. So I have collected numerous spools of ribbon over the years. I found these ClosetMaid racks at Home Depot and VOILA! They are perfect! Although....they are all full. Maybe I should join a ribbon swap?

Between paper and ribbon - well let's just say I should be set for projects for the rest of my life! Anyone else share this problem? Tomorrow I'm off to a Folk Art Fest - I can't wait! Hopefully I will be in the creating mode on Sunday!
