Color Swatches

I love having these swatches at my fingertips while I am working on a project. Not having to get up to grab 5 different ribbon spools or pull out all of my cardstock keeps my work surface free of clutter and saves me the time of putting everything back after I am done.

This is my simple little system, but it works for me. The rings hang on the little hooks of my carousel.

I buy my ribbon at Michael's and this system is useful too when I need to replace a specific color of ribbon or if I want to match something up to my cardstock. I just grab these before I go!
