Organizing thread


The people who know me and have seen my basement and my "dining room" table constantly covered by 12 different sewing projects will laugh and laugh when they see me try to give tips about organizing sewing supplies, but here goes: My mom and I made this board that holds all my threads. We hammered in a bunch of nails on a board - all about 1 1/2 inches apart. Now they can be arranged by color and I can see what I have. I often inherit someone's grandma's stash of sewing notions, because they don't know what to do with sewing supplies. (I didn't actually buy twenty spools of mint green, pink and turquoise but I'll know where to find it when I need it.)
