I have gotten most of the things mentions before, but , I also bought a magnetic bar (about 15 inches long & about 1 inch wide) that I attached to the bottom of my pegboard. Then I just stick my tweezers, scissors, screwdriver, etc. to it. Make it so much easier to get to them. Very, very handy. As mentioned before, don't mount them to close to your computerized sewing machine. I love just going in & wandering around & using my imagination, to see what will be useful in my sewing room. YEAH, Harbor Freight!!!

I bought a rolling bag for my sewing machine at Harbor Freight. It has an retractable/extending handle like luggage. Carefully check the base dimensions of your sewing machine though - my older machine fits perfectly, my newer computerized one is too large!
It was available with a second "tool" bag that worked well for all the "extras" like scissors, etc. -- my DH has borrowed that one.
I think the two pieces were $30 range but they have 20% off coupons in nearly every ad.

Plastic boxes like you'd buy for matchbox cars, only cheaper at Harbor Freight. They are perfect for spools of thread. I've had good luck with the rug cutting blades. Small metal bowl for holding pins etc. Lots of good things at HF.
