It's all about RIBBON!


At KSK this week, we are featuring glorious ribbons!
There's lots of ribbon in stock, and our design team have shared ribbon layouts, storage ideas and their ribbon favourites at KSK.

Storage:
Ribbons can be difficult to store - once you get a collection going, it can be hard to find your favourites in the jumble of a bag or multiple packets. Plus, you don't want them getting squashed or creased. If your ribbons look like this, then read on!

In a basket/drawers or box:
Believe it or not, lots of scrappers love to store their ribbons loose this way!
Having your ribbons loose (and a little bit tangled) makes it easy to find great combinations that you might not have thought of otherwise, and also makes sure you don't miss any new additions by having them stashed away. Every time you need to find a particular ribbon, tip them out on the floor or bench and rummage through to find your favourites!

Wrapped ribbons:
For the exceptionally neat scrappers out there, try wrapping your ribbons on cardboard, or in specially designed embellishment holders, organised by colour.

We LOVE Sam's ribbon storage, and Kim's ribbon drawer above is also slowly being transformed into the neatly wrapped chipboard below - all hung on a hinged ring for easy storage.

In Jars:
Ngaire Bartlam loves to store her ribbon in glass jars, for easy selection. Ribbons on reels are stored on a wooden dowel hung on the wall.

RIBBON LAYOUTS:

For ideas on using your ribbon stash, check out some of our design team layouts!
