Here are a couple of baskets I have recycled/upcycled to store my smaller bits of ribbon in. Both baskets originally had pot plants in them. Having given them a good wash I then gave them a new coat of acrylic paint to match my craft room. I then wound some gingham ribbon around the handle of the first basket and glued the ends in place. On both baskets I then glued frilly gingham ribbon around the top edge. To finish off I made some ribbon bows and added flowers.
