Great ideal I told my DH. tonight that he needs to get me
this set up also. Thanks for sharing your project with us.

FYI, I bought three pegboard baskets, black, in a kit from HD. I'll be returning them. They don't work well with the pegboard at all. If you don't have anything heavy in them they pop up and they seem to put quite a stress on the board. I didn't like them. There's a kit of small hooks etc. at HD that was like $3 that works great for hanging mats etc!

Thanks for the heads up Candace.

I used 1/4" dowels cut to size.

This is wonderful. Wish I could use something similar.

But
- I have very little wall space (I don't know where it went! :) );
- My kitties would think this was either a new display for TOYS or, they'd try to climb up it; and,
- is my house the only one that gets dusty?? :x

Alas, mine will stay in plastic boxes for now.

Very nice job and you can move the pegs per the spool.

Very good idea. I should do the same and keep it near machine so it would be easy to put the spools back up rather than letting the accumulate on sewing table.
