Ribbon holder

I found this old thing. I'm not even sure what it is used for? I needed something to hold my ribbon. I'm sure I have seen this idea somewhere else. Sorry I cant remember.

I just love it now. It fits my ribbon perfectly. I usually stick with the same colors of ribbon. It really doesn't hold much. But I'm sure if you search enough you can find a bigger one at your thrift store.

This year Michaels has some amazing ribbon in the Christmas section. This week it is 40% off. The gold ribbon. Is so pretty it is more tarnished gold, than just gold. The pink and the blue are just to pretty. I think I need some more. The red and green glitter ribbon that Michaels sells would be perfect for some Christmas tags. Oh so many ideas.
