how to keep ribbon

I would always coil it and put it in a tiny chect of drawers I got at IKEA, but this wasn't practical: whenever I wanted a ribbon that was beneath another, lazy-I would just pull out the bottom ribbon and leave the drawer in disarray.

All this changed when my friend showed me how she keeps her ribbons--a long, thin board, painted however you like (I've done horizontal stripes of transparent acrylic colors), with nails attached every so often across the top.

I can't keep myself from anything that can be organized in rainbow order!
