I save all the cloth and satin ribbons used to wrap my Christmas gifts. I never know when they will come in handy.

My collection of cloth ribbons, cords and satin ribbons.

I showed you how I embellished a pillow with scrap ribbons (“You Don’t Bring Me Flowers” http://wp.me/pKNzn-t6) in October.

I used a cotton ribbon, formerly wrapped around my pajamas when I received them, to use as a tie on some pajama pants I hope to replace soon. I didn’t want to expend the effort to replace the elastic since I plan on throwing them away as soon as I find a pair of 100% cotton pants in a tall size.
