Easy DIY Embroidery Thread Holder for Sewing Room Organization Ideas and cotton storage 

The best diy thread rack I've seen. Not just easy to make but does the job well and looks good. Well done Gavin.

You’ve made this ol’ gran’s day, Gavin! A short trip to Bunnings and I’ll FINALLY be able to get my embroidery threads sorted (and out of the shoeboxes) 😊 Thank you!

Awesome work Gav. You are a master creator. Love your work.

Mr Clark thank you for sharing another great DIY. Did you build the sewing tables in the sewing room? Just wondered

This is great! Thank you for taking the time to make this video. I just started making this this morning. I've never tried anything like it before so it's taking me a while, but I'm surprised how much I'm enjoying making it! Some of my hook holes are a bit wonky but I don't care! Thanks for giving me the confidence to have a try!

What was the distance between the screw holes you drilled and size of the main board you used?

Thankyou Gavin for your great demonstration, This is just what Im looking for ,cant wait to start making it.

Gavin, you inspired me and I’ve futzed away with the little woodwork knowledge I have....it’s almost complete....I will post a pic when the board is completed and the whole thing is mounted on the wall (with my new stud finder) and filled with my cottons..thank you.

oh my God I want this!!

Thank you so very much for this video! You gave me the perfect idea for my sewing room and it will save me about $60! You did a great job of explaining what to do and how to do it, so I'm confident that I can create my own.

What a great idea. I love how you produced this much simpler thread holder compared to the other one which was great also. And there is enough room above or below to put the number of embroidery thread on the board ensuring that after use the thread gets put back where it belongs. Only one thing keeps me from making one and that is unfortunately all my wall space is already utilized. (and my routing experience is non existent but I could add molding to the edges instead). Is there a way that it could stand up and be put onto wheels so that it could be pushed under a desk when not in use (and not fall over naturally)? If you added thread to both sides by alternating the holders on each side of the board - would the size you recommend for the wood still work? (I have a lot of thread about 200 reels! and that doesn't include my sewing threads or overlocker threads) And with thread on both sides and even enclosed like a very skinny cupboard perhaps using perspex or even plastic stretched on a frame utilized as a door that opens and shuts so you could see the threads. That way it would be dust free, away from sunlight and nothing falls off when moving it. That would be my dream thread holder.

A very good, clear video, Thankyou, It's just what I'm wanting for my studio too. My only adverse comment is that it is set up too high on the wall. I feel that it would be easier for your wife to use if it could be lower & where she can use it whilst sitting at the machine IE: to the right of the power point, under the lights, sitting nearly on the bench, or lower down on the left of the power point. I also think that another useful hack is to put a magnetic strip up on the wall near the machines, to store her scissors, clippers pliers, etc so that they are in easy reach. It is such a pain looking through drawers for the different tools necessary. Cheers

Thank you, wish I had a drill press though!! I put my bobbin underneath the spool, it fits just right!
