Abstract

A kit that facilitates the dispensing of a ribbon from a handheld ribbon dispenser using only one hand, whereby the weight of the ribbon is evenly distributed about the dispenser and the roll of ribbon rotates parallel to the horizon. The kit comprising a handle, a circular disk bottom base plate, a vertical rotation rod, a roll of ribbon, a circular disk top base plate, and a fastening means. The handle is fixedly attached to the circular disk bottom plate; the circular disk bottom plate is fixedly attached to the vertical rotation rod; the roll of ribbon is rotatably disposed around the vertical rotation rod; and the circular disk top base plate is removably attached to the vertical rotation rod using the fastening means.
