Thread Spool Storage Solutions
Aug 28, 2009
Instead of sorting through the thread scattered all around our workspace, Havel’s Sewing wanted to get organized. We’ve got spools in jars and spools in our sewing kit, but we needed a nice, tidy solution that keeps the thread neat and offers us the ability to view our choices all at once. Here are a few thread spool storage solutions available for purchase online:

The June Tailer Thread Rack from Create for Less offers space for 30 mini spools of thread. Thenatural wood rack has 6 rows with 5 pegs on each row. The rack is approximately 7 1/4″x 13″ and the legs spread out approximately 6 1/2″.

For those of you who love the traditional:
Antique Oak Thread Spool Holder or Caddy from recycleeh
Vintage Sewing Caddy from allthingswhite

Vintage Plastic Shell Shaped Thread Spool Holder from NittyGrittyVintage
I noticed that you have a shell shaped thread holder plastic case and I was wondering where you found it. I sold one some time ago to a lady in Canada but it got lost in the mail so I am looking for another one.
That particular thread holder was found at the Nitty Gritty in Louisville, KY here is their website – http://www.nittygrittyvintage.com/index.html. Don’t know that they’ll have another one in stock, but couldn’t hurt to call them. Good Luck!
