Creative Thread Storage
     Released October 16, 2009

By Dorothy Kregar

I purchased the 61 embroidery thread.  What a wonderful deal!
My tip for viewing all the thread is, I purchased a Hanging Jewelry Organizer”.  It holds 30 spools on one side and another thirty plus on the reverse side.  Each pocket is clear so you can see the colors.  I put all my thread into the plastic containers.  The bottom of each side also has three larger pockets.  I think it’s great.  Keeps the thread clean and untangled.

  2. i think it is a great idea i use the double sided boxes with the same idea. if we dont get organised we cant create it isn`t conducive to producing our best.

  3. This is the first time ever I have commented on a project on the net but I thought that this was such a great idea. It has got my imagination going to make it roll for taking cottons to my sewing group and classes. Many thanks

  6. I live in Florida and purchased the storage organizer at STEIN MART STORE. It possibly can be found in jewelry depts or hosiery dept.

  7. This is a great idea - I have also used that exact same thing for all my notions for years and the best part is that you can visibly see them without thumbing through drawers!
