Ribbon moment...

Okay, so I had a moment. I needed some white grosgrain ribbon and I went online to order some and well.... look what happened.





There are over 50 spools with 10 - 100 yards each of delicious grosgrain. I am am going to cut 1 yard pieces of each spool today and put them on my Ribbon Rings, by color. I will use an inventory dot to let me know I have more of each of these (it some cases A LOT more) when I run out. Then I can store these spools under the bed until I use up what is on the Ribbon Ring.

SSSSHHHHH don't tell my husband!

Ribbon Ring - My favorite place to buy ribbon...

I get asked ALL THE TIME where I buy my ribbon. Well, I have been collecting it for over 12 years, so I know all the good places to find it! One of my very favorite supplies for quality grosgrain and ric rac is Really Reasonable Ribbon. I just bought 700 yards from them in fact. :) Yes 700 yards. DO NOT tell my husband. :)

I am replacing all of my personal ribbon that I take to scrapbook shows. So many people touch and handle the ribbon at my booth and I want to encourage that... just not with my own personal ribbon. Especially when a child with ice-cream fingers wants to touch all of the pink ribbon.... ACK! I know you get it... So, if you are looking for yummy ribbon, visit the Really Reasonable Ribbon website... http://www.reasonableribbon.com/.

Tell them the Ribbon Ring lady sent you! :)

Post CHA... what do I do with the extra rings?

Hi all! I have been sooooo busy filling the orders from CHA that I haven't had time to do anything else!

I have a ton of 1.5" rings that I used as giveaways at CHA (I punched a hole in my business card and put the card and a threaded ribbon tag on the metal ring... it was sooo cute).

Any ideas as to what to do with these 1.5" rings? I don't sell this size on the Ribbon Ring webiste. I suppose if people wanted to sub-divide their ribbon rings by brand or something, then these little rings would work.... should I add them to the website?

In fact, I have had demonstrators from CTMH and Stampin' Up use smaller rings to subdivide their ribbon... all of one collection on a small ring, and all the small rings on a big ring....

What do you think??

Ribbon Ring in scrap rooms

I would love to see how you hang your ribbon ring in your scrap space. I have heard people use:

• curtain rods
• coat racks
• coat hook
• towel rod
  

Please send me a pic of your beautiful space and I will post it on this blog! You have probably all seen mine on the website, but it is posted above.

Really nice note from customer

I got the sweetest note today. A customer sent me this email:

"I was one of the lucky ones who tested your product. I just wanted to say it was so cool to see your 'ribbon ring' in the scrapbook magazines. I've had so many ideas that I was too scared or lazy to try to make it work. It really goes to show that someone who loves to scrapbook can make themselves a success just by believing in themselves. I hope you are a huge success...I don't even know you and I am so proud to see someone believe in themselves and make 'it' work. "

How nice is that? She made my day!!
