Spools of shiny, sparkly prettiness
Which are a total pain to figure out what to do with.... Unless you're the cat, then it's how many can I steal to play with and loose under the couch before they're hidden from me.
There are some options on what to do:
- put in a storage bag
- put in a box
- put in a thread box like this one
- put in the stitching bag and hope to be able to find it later
I found these while shopping at Fabricland for Christmas fabric:
and I thought to myself "Kreinik would fit in those.... and you can see all the prettiness...." So I picked some up when they went on sale.
I have sorted the spools by type (BF, #4 etc) and label the ends and they are on the shelf in number order.

Great idea for the pretties
Lots of lovely pretties! What a wonderful idea for these....
WOW.. This is such a great idea -
You are just getting so organized.
I just found your blog. I love your project. As soon as work slows down a little, I'm going to start working on my stuff. I don't think I have as much as you do, but I really enjoy the tips. I'll be coming back often - thanks so much for sharing. I plan to start after Labor Day. That's usually when work slows down.
I have one of these boxes too but I'm actually using it to store the Guterman threads in. I never thought about adding the Kreiniks to it. Brilliant!
Trouble is, I'd need about 4 of them! Like you, I just LOVE Kreinik threads and try to use them whenever I can.=)
