Carol asked about the cabinet peeking out in my last post. That is my floss storage cabinet. It is actually a CD/DVD cabinet but it holds my floss bags perfectly! This was a birthday gift from Rick a couple of years ago. You can shop for your own here!
This is also little Miss Taco's favorite sleepy spot.
My floss is stored in zippered floss bags with a 3x5 index card inside to make the bag stand up. When I pull floss for a project, I hole-punch the card and add the bag onto floss rings. The white card makes it easy to spot which bag I'm needing. If I have tons of colors for one project, they go into an index card box. You can see them in yesterdays photos on the shelves...they look like green drawers.
How cool is that! Love your idea Sharon!
ReplyDeleteThat is an awesome idea! Thanks for sharing, I may have to look around for something like it.
ReplyDeleteWell you already know I love that cabinet,One day I will get one like it!! But first I need more floss to go in it..LOL
ReplyDeleteThat's some floss cabinet
ReplyDeleteNow that is a fantastic thread storage cupbord....Would save looking in all the places I have my threads.

That's a great idea - must keep an eye out
ReplyDeleteThat's a fabulous piece. And you have so much floss! It looks like fun to play with.
ReplyDeleteThat is a fantastic idea!!! My DH, who also stitches, is anti-bobbin because he doesn't like the kinks in the threads, but it's hard to figure out a way to store whole skeins of thread so they're organized. This is a great idea!
ReplyDeleteReally nice cabinet ;) You are very organized ;)
ReplyDeleteJust what I've been looking for! I need something to put my Ott light on as well and this is perfect for the living room. Thanks!

ReplyDeleteThanks Sharon for showing your gorgeous cabinet. Shame it would cost a fortune to ship one to the UK!
