If you put them in a rack of some kind, they can twist out of shape. At hundreds of dollars each you sure don't want to replace them often, but you can't afford to not cut straight lines either.

It has sliding glass doors on top and 3 wooden doors on the bottom. I keep all my quilting cotton above, where I can see it. All other materials are below. I use retro, round clear glass candy/ cookie jars to store my smaller scraps. I like the idea of the bell jars though!

Since it's clear glass on the front, I can see easily what's in there. I have a shelf just for batting and flannel, another for batiks, fat quarter bundles, and all my white/cream fabrics, and then the other shelves have stacks of fabric sorted by color. That's really helped me see what fabrics I have, plus it looks pretty with all the colors in there!Barbarahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04896211082692265729noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3689583641548360789.post-71815092511891746162016-02-24T13:27:59.148-05:002016-02-24T13:27:59.148-05:00I love all these ideas and almost all of these ite...I love all these ideas and almost all of these items are sitting around the house.

He has passed away since. I keep the bowls on a shelf in my sewing area, filled with unique buttons and old wooden spools. I also have the quart size jars filled with buttons. One jar for each color of buttons. They add color to the area and I can see what buttons I have.Kimhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13310857716597769939noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3689583641548360789.post-81701367389408019922016-02-23T07:27:19.464-05:002016-02-23T07:27:19.464-05:00Cute ideas, GGK!Cute ideas, GGK!Jwardeast@gmail.comhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09810126467984547112noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3689583641548360789.post-34978910202412844892016-02-23T07:27:05.325-05:002016-02-23T07:27:05.325-05:00Cute ideas, GGK!Cute ideas, GGK!Jwardeast@gmail.comhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09810126467984547112noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3689583641548360789.post-68727593691110267672016-02-22T11:15:57.754-05:002016-02-22T11:15:57.754-05:00I use a tool chest with sliding drawers to keep my...I use a tool chest with sliding drawers to keep my scissors, rotary cutter, extra blades, pressing sheets, tube turners,(especially the metal ones with hook); & some of my rulers that are so easy to lose. I will be taking some of the extra bowls in the kitchen. I never thought about that wine rack holding threads! Such great ideas. I keep my zippers in plastic boxes. Makes it easy to find all of them & not have unwanted folds that seem to never come out after ironing!Aunt Mimihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13530878636904927910noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3689583641548360789.post-57178989428128017302016-02-22T09:54:34.632-05:002016-02-22T09:54:34.632-05:00Great stuff here!

It will still hang on the wall. And for individual blocks, why not an easel type desk frame that can sit right by the sewing machine?Gene Blackhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15731141629634998152noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3689583641548360789.post-5977062305247926602016-02-22T08:50:51.508-05:002016-02-22T08:50:51.508-05:00That wine rack is perfect for thread!

What great ideas you've got for this and that. <br />My neighbors remodeled their very old kitchen and gave me a couple of old drawers, one had a little cutlery drawer in it. That's what I use for my thread and the larger drawers have fabric in them. I mostly use bins for my fabric, all bought from Ikea ~ the best place on earth for great stuff!

One fits my 2 inch squares in 9 piles perfectly, one for a mix of other sizes, some as project boxes (the ones with clear plastic lids. At Christmas we received a small hamper that came in a basket lined with red and white polka dot fabric so that is now my scrap basket. Its always funny on Christmas Day when I get just as excited over the packaging as I do over the gift inside! I also just had my hubby put another hook for rulers on the side of my desk for those times when you are using several but don't want them all on the desk at the same time. So much easier than searching under fabric for them!Soolihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04703155392258429098noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3689583641548360789.post-41637147841700811232016-02-21T17:01:57.653-05:002016-02-21T17:01:57.653-05:00All...so much fun!!!
