Get Organized in the New Year

Ugh! One of the things I hate most is a disorganized space. Things everywhere and nothing being utilized. I tend to be a very organized person, but it doesn't help when my space is limited. I'm not as fortunate as others to have an entire room for my crafty stuff, but there are ways to take what you got and run with it!

I purchased this little organizer earlier in the year at Michaels on clearance. Its intended use is for your washi tape. I did a good job right? Ha!! Obviously things got carried away and I wasn't able to keep this organizational tool in its upkeep. It doesn't work for all washis and it truly was hard to remove. So with inspiration from Martha, who is @marthascreations on Instagram, I found a new use for this contraption.

So pretty right?! Granted I have A LOT more ribbon/trim than this in my stash, but these are my go tos. This idea won't work for all of your ribbon spools because of the size. If you're not planning to stack them on top of each other, then go for it!! I chose ones that could fit when stacked. Some I don't use very often, but with this set up, this will get me to use the ones I've been hoarding. My ultimate goal this year is to use what I have and stop buying everything I see people haul. Difficult when those clearance sales start flashing in your face. It's a start. I hope you find inspiration in this technique. If so, make sure your tag me on Instagram (@bbz_kraftz), and make sure you give Martha a shout out too because that's where I got this idea from myself!! Happy Organizing!
