I dont know if anyone has tried this but all it takes is a few things you are sure to have around.
1.a wire cloths hanger
2.a new pencil
O.k. what I did was take the hanger and kept bending it till it broke off.Just take off the hook.(you can cut it off but I didn't want to hunt for wire cutters).Bend the hanger until it is straight.
Now take your ribbon spool and slide it on to the hanger.
Then take your pencil and slide it into the hole of the spool.
All you have to do now is add your spools over the hanger and pencil.As you add more spools pull the hanger end to the end of the pencil.
Bend the hanger to make your stack straight.
If you run out on room on your first pencil add another pencil..I went 3 high and it started to lean from being top heavy..
easy to make and you can see all your ribbon.I love being able to have my ribbon right on my scrap table.

I'm needing a pic as well...I have to have a visual. Sounds like a nifty idea though!

my camera is not working right now but all you see is ribon spools it looks like they are stacked but of course they would fall if they were..I love it because it is cheaper then a ribbon box plus you see how much of the ribbon you have left..
