A Cool Spool (of Thread) Holder - DIY

My daughter was looking for a way to store and display

all her many spools of thread.

She went to the right source - Mr. Nest.

We had a leftover piece of styrofoam - 1 inch thick -

that we had saved from some packing we received.

Also, Mr. N. had a bag of extra long golf tees -

bingo - a light bulb idea!

First, he cut the piece of styrofoam 9 1/2 inches  wide and 21 inches long.
He placed the golf tees approximately every 2 inches.
(The tees were 3 1/4 inches long - Walmart!)

He simply pushed the tees through the back.

Then he put a piece of book binding tape over the heads, as well as around the edges.

Another idea might be to put a dab of hot glue between the head of the tee

and the styrofoam.

He cut a little piece of styrofoam with an angle and

taped it to the board with book binding tape

so that it would prop up for easy use and good sight.

Daughter loves it - so useful!

And she can place a spool and the bobbin together

on each golf tee.

Just thought this was a clever idea worth sharing.

Mr. N. can always come up with just the right idea!!

Blessings,

Linda
