I love Art Bin thread boxes. Yes, they are a little pricey but all of mine came from Jo Ann's...those coupons come in handy!

I found a shelf at a yardsale that is spaced maybe 3 inches apart and I hung it on my wall. I love it.

I bought two of these and I have all my thread in these with some spaces not filled. The only problem I'm having is finding a good place to store them. They are up on the closet shelf right now and I'd like to have them lower....but my sewing room is a work in progress so hoping they'll eventually find a good spot.

Wow, your sewing room looks so organized. My hubby made cabinets all around the top of my sewing room, . He was tired of seeing them all in the open. He also ran a pipe across on the other side and made some hooks so I hang the rulers on it. They are always right there when i need it.

Ive picked up a bunch of the old sewing thread boxes for less then a dollar.. sometime less then $3 if they are filled.. and just color code them..

I use the small ( 5 drawer desk top model) plastic drawers... I sort by color/emberoidery/ etc. each drawer is labeled with color or embroidery. the best system I found for me.....

I have mine lined up on a shelf. Can't wait until the cat discovers his rolly toys are all lined up and ready to play.

Maybe I should get a tackle box.
