Ribbon/Lace Spool


Hello, today I have something a bit different to show you, I have made a Ribbon/Lace Spool
What to do with all your loose ribbon & at the same time pretty up the craftroom.


I have used the new release digi 'Angelica Crafting' from Inky Impressions.



What you will need:

1x Toilet roll
2x circles of cardstock


Stick one circle to the top & one circle to the bottom of the toilet (see below)


 Cover the toilet roll will some cardstock or pretty paper, so you can't see it's a toilet roll.
Now decorate anyway you would like.


I have used mine for some heart ribbon I have & to hold it on I used a heart stick pin. 
Go crazy make heaps, what a great gift idea for a someone who loves ribbons or lace.
Also you can cut your toilet roll in half & make small ones.

Hope you like my idea of this Ribbon/Lace spool, it sure is a great way to recycle your toilet rolls.

Don't forget to check out all the stamps & digi images at Inky Impressions, I'm sure there will be one you would love for the top of your own ribbon/lace spool.



All the best

I have used string beads to frame the drawers & top of cupboard.


I have painted all the edges in gold paint than using a brown ink inked over the top for a older look.
All the flowers are from wild Orchid & the ribbon is from the ribbon girl.
The lace around the oval plaque is from Live & love crafts.


For the top I have used the dress form die from la la land crafts.
I have also made some spools out of scrap card wrapped some cotton around added a heart stick pin.


The handles for the cupboard I got from the local hardware store.
