I really had no good way of organizing my thread...I like to keep the matching thread and bobbin together, but other than that, there was no system. Well, I shouldn't say that. I would put them in tiny baggies 2 colors per bag, then throw them in this box.
I would dig and dig until I found the color I needed...or one that was close to the color I needed!
For Christmas, My Mom gave me a big pack of thread, and Brian's Mom gave me this wood rack and more thread!
I'm so excited to have it organized and out where I can see it. As I make a bobbin for each color, I slip it under the spool and they are always together! I think I might have Brian screw them into the wall next to my sewing station to free up this space. All these colors make happy :o)
thats how my thread is...i just stick the bobbins w/ matching colors next to the thread.
ReplyDeleteI do the same thing with my jars too, just don't have any shelves yet. I save all my jars from things like spaghetti sauce etc. to store things in them.
