Well maybe a little. I have raved on and on how happy I am with my threads on hoops hanging on the door... But as I was stitching the other day I was thinking it would be even more perfect if they were all on a revolving rack at my side... My first thought was a revolving tie rack I could mount on a stand but they were not large enough around to hold many rings.
Since we worked booths at flower shows for years and years I have a small room in the barn filled with a variety of display fixtures and this is what I ended up with.
I would like it a bit taller and the basket to have a bottom but it is workable. I will see what I can do to tweet it to my needs.
Originally it was a shoe display rack and looked something like this, but only three baskets. I had put bottoms in the baskets and used it to display small items. I took off all the baskets except a large one.
This is what would be absolutely perfect. It is a hankerchief or scarf rack. The diameter is large and the height is adjustable... But it is $60 plus $20 for shipping so I will (as usual) work with what I find in the barn for free and recycle and upcycle. Plus I will keep an eye out when I am thrifting!
I'll be thinking on it while I'm winding down the garden and overseeing the "limbing up" of my forest to reduce fire danger.

this stand works well but I expect you will find something even better in that barn of yours one day!
Oh, to be a cat at the base of that merry-go-round of ribbons!
And you could mount an electric motor so you could have a lovely carousel of constantly changing colour that you could see while you are stitching :)
How clever!
