The Simplest of Solutions

I sew quite a bit. Up to this point, my thread has been stored in this beast:

Super inconvenient, super awkward to store, super ugly. Both sides of the case fold up and latch together so that every time you open it all the thread goes flying off their little pegs. There have definitely been times where I have used black thread on brown fabric just because I didn't want to deal with finding a different color in there. Good thing I discovered a simple solution to my problem:
1. find an old frame you're not using & cut a piece of wood to fit into it

2. hammer some evenly spaced nails into the board

3. put the board into the frame and place your thread on the nails

Voila! Much prettier, much more accessible.
