storing my large cones of embroidery
 
2 Attachment(s)
I have a narrow cabinet that I was keeping my big spool of embroidery thread in and the thread was stacked on top of each other and was just a pain. So I took and made U shaped shelves and put my thread on . All of my thread fit in here that was stacked. Now can see each spool and no digging . Just love it.

Nice cabinet! Mine is stored in boxes by number. Course the numbers are so small it is hard these old eyes to read them anymore!

Oh my that is a lot of thread.

Tartan 09-29-2014 06:43 PM

What a great idea! Love it!!!

I love it. I have mine in two chest dressers. Yes I have a lot but they are sorted by colors. Works great for me and they are out of light and do not get dusty.

Neat storage idea! That's a lot of thread. You must do a lot of embroideries...

Dream walk in thread closet for long arm quilters. I bet you have fun shopping every time you pick a new thread. I love how they are well organized. Mine are a big mess in a drawer but I do not have that many colors or spools.

Thank you for sharing, great idea. love the organization. Mine are in a plastic box, jumbled together. I like how yours are arranged.
