Organised ribbons on wooden dolly pegs


Ribbon and lace on dolly pegs



When you live in a little house you have to be organised, or charm quickly turns to clutter. When it came to ribbons no matter how hard I tried they'd always end up in a massive tangled mess.







So one day, while hanging out my washing I had an idea that would combine beauty AND practicality, thus putting an end to my rebellious ribbons! 






 Ribbons are so pretty it's a shame not to have them on show, and wooden pegs have a lovely old fashioned charm so the two are a match made in heaven. 






So simply wind your ribbons around your pegs, secure it with a pin and display in a pretty basket.

Simples!

    1. Really? they were using these long before the pegs we now know and love in the UK. I still prefer using these though, and they come in very handy for other things as you've just seen! : )

  2. This is so brilliant! And the pegs (we call them clothespins here in the States but dolly pegs is such a cuter name! I must remember that!) look so sweet with the lace on them in the basket! I am definitely going to do this! Thank you for the inspiration!!
