The question of how to properly store the threads is relevant not only for a professional seamstress, but also for any housewife. If you just dump them in one pile, adding needles, scissors, thimble, pins there, then very quickly all this will mix into an intractable lump. To prevent this from happening, you must store the threads separately in a special container.

It is necessary

Shoe box, candy box, cardboard sheet, plywood sheet, screws, wood board, piece of cloth, needle, thread, lace

Instructions

Step 1

Take a regular shoebox. If you don't have enough thread, a small box of children's boots will do. Insert a few cardboard strips inside the box to create the dividers. If the strips are cut and connected together, then you get an excellent storage for threads with many cells.

Step 2

Sew a bag from a piece of thick fabric. Tuck its upper edge inward by a width of 2-3 cm and sew. Make a slit in the resulting ring and thread the string into it. Fold the threads into a bag, pull the neck tightly.

Step 3

Take the wooden plank. Make holes in it at an equal distance into which you insert long thin sticks that look like pencils. To keep the sticks well, make the holes exactly in size and coat them with silicone glue. You should get a device that looks like a ladder without one vertical rung. Place a spool of thread on each rung.

Step 4

Choose a candy box where the cells are rectangular. It is desirable that they match in size with the spools of thread. Fold the threads there. So all the threads will always be in your sight and will never get confused with each other.

Step 5

Take a sheet of plywood 50 * 50 cm (dimensions can be arbitrary). On one side, screw the screws into the plywood so long that they protrude about 7-10 cm from the other side of the plywood sheet. Put spools of thread on the screws or hang the threads of the floss. The plywood sheet can be hung on the wall. If there are a lot of threads, then you can make several such "holders" and stack them on top of each other in a horizontal position.
