Craftroom Mayhem: When Ribbons and Washi Finally Get Their Act Together!

 Let’s talk about the chaos of ribbons and washi tape. If yours are currently in a tangled mess or scattered across your craft room, you’re not alone. But fear not—because I’ve found the ultimate hack to get these crafty little troublemakers under control. Spoiler alert: It involves those adjustable shelf holes on your craft room furniture that you’ve probably been ignoring.

 

In my latest YouTube video, I’ll show you how to turn those humble shelf holes into an organization masterpiece that’ll make you wonder why you didn’t do this sooner!

The Hack: Adjustable Shelf Holes + Dowels = Game Changer

Here’s how it works:

  1. Grab Some Dowels: You can find these at any hardware store. Make sure they’re thin enough to fit through the holes and sturdy enough to hold your ribbon spools and washi rolls.
  2. Adjust the Shelf Pegs: Use the existing shelf holes to place pegs at the desired height.
  3. Slide the Dowels In: Thread your ribbons or washi onto the dowels and place the dowels onto the pegs. Voila! Everything is neatly stored and ready to grab.
  4. Layer Up: Depending on your shelf height, you can add multiple dowels for even more storage. It’s like a custom ribbon-and-washi station!

Why This Works Like Magic

  • Space-Saving: Keeps everything off your desk and out of drawers, freeing up precious crafting real estate.
  • Visible and Accessible: No more digging through bins or untangling ribbons. Everything is right there, easy to see and grab.
  • Customizable: Adjust the height and spacing to fit your collection perfectly—whether you’re a washi minimalist or a ribbon hoarder (no judgment!).

Craftroom Chaos No More

With this simple hack, you can finally give your ribbons and washi tape the organized home they deserve. Plus, it’s so satisfying to see everything lined up and pretty—it might even inspire you to craft more (or at least admire your handiwork).
