Kindly unKnot Your Knickers--Auction Treasures Part 4

I apologize profusely for not posting this earlier, like I promised. I'm sure you've been waiting impatiently. I put literally 200 miles on my Suburban yesterday--football practice, diving, musical theater practice, Target, piano lessons, swimming lessons, musical theater performance, dive meet. Whew.
Then, last night, as I was attempting to post, my tool bar disappeared from my blog, so I couldn't access my blog. Then, when I finally got into my blog, it would keep denying requests by pulling up a blank page that said "Bad Request." This morning I rebooted the computer, tried again, same issue. I pulled up blogger in Internet Explorer insteat of Firefox, and it was fine. Anyone have any clue what happened? HELP ME!

Here are the pictures I promised.

I went to the auction with one thing on my mind--this hutch. It was exactly the right dimension for the awkward space on the window wall in my hobby room, and I knew exactly what I would do with it.

I've always lived by the "I'd rather throw it out today and buy it again tomorrow" philosophy when it comes to clutter and keeping things. Except for ribbon. For some reason, I can't let ribbon make its way to the garbage. So? I have a spool or two. And a tub of scraps. When I saw this hutch, I knew the upper cabinet could hold all of my ribbon, and the drawers could house my wrapping paper and bags and tissue.
I didn't know exactly how to mount the dowels inside the cabinet, so I hauled five kids to Home Depot and asked the men in the orange aprons. They approached my question like the challenge of the day--"Dave will know." "Maybe we should ask Allen in hardware." They came up with this solution:

Since no one makes the rod cups you see in a standard closet to fit a 5/16" dowel, we cut the top off a chair stopper and created our own. They're clever, those men in orange. Then, Brad screwed the caps to the inside of the cupboard, minimizing any necessary change to the cabinet.

Then he cut the dowels and I color-coded and organized the ribbon to my satisfaction. See?

The bottom shelf holds my tags, tag punches and yarn, and each drawer has its own purpose--one for tulle, one for wrapping paper, one for tissue and bags, and one for my Cricut.

Now, all the paper and tissue and bags and ribbon that took up an entire wall in my hobby room are in here, and I couldn't be more satisfied. Am I the only person in the world that takes utter joy in a project completely organized and color coded?

Linking up my new wrapper/ribbon Keeper to K at Alphabe-Thursday. And as promised, I'll post before/after pictures tomorrow. Oh, and a giveaway. Just because.
