Over on the OOE board, the question of how do you store your floss was asked. So... here goes. I have all the Anchor (solid) colors and they are in bags by numbers, all the DMC (solids) are wound on bobbins and stored in a 'jammers' box. All of the colors will fit with some room for extras. Kreiniks are in another jammers box by color number. My GAST and WDW are stored in floss-away boxes in alpha oder. (this pic is the stack of GAST - WDW are on the other end of the shelf. The other boxes have the misc. threads that I don't have many of and I'm not currently in the process of collecting. So - I can pretty much find whatever fiber I'm looking for. Fabric, charts, etc - not so much!

Geeezzz...makes the round tin that I have stuffed my threads in look very sad indeed... well, least the tin is cute. Thanks for the ideas!

Great way to store the Kreiniks - now I have a use for that extra box!

OMGosh...this reminds me of Chele's craft room....great to have it all organised like this.
Where do you find Floss-away boxes? And are the threads in the floss away bags inside the boxes? I need some clever way to store my floss away bags. Thanks!
