I think this is the last of my good ideas for a while. Previously I stored my thread on racks hanging on my walls. Well, it gets dusty and takes up wall space, so I decided I needed to come up with something else.
I took the photo boxes that you can buy at Michael's or Joann's and cut foam board to fit in the bottom. I then hot glued extra long golf tees to the foam board. But the board in the box and then put the thread and bobbins on the tees. One thing I still have left to do is to replace all the hair ties with clear plastic tubing to hold the thread on the bobbin. |
Great idea. How do you do the plastic tubing?

I was wondering this too... thanks for asking that! What a great system AND it keeps the tread from collecting dust too! |

What a great idea!! My hubby is a golfer, so I have plenty of golf tees. Now to find just the right box.

Super idea! Don't tell Michael's or they will make them and sell them to us for 19.99 each. Lol

Curious as well about the plastic netting?
Great idea and decorative also!! Thanks for sharing!! |

That is a neat idea. Yes, dust does not care where it sleeps at.
