Now nothing will get confused. Method for storing sewing thread in a PET bottle

When storing threads in a box, they constantly unwind and get tangled. As a result, it takes a long time to untie the knots. If you switch to storing threads in a bottle, you won’t have any more problems with them.

Materials:

• square transparent plastic bottle;
  
• cocktail tubes.

The process of making a thread stand

A bottle without a cap must be cut in half lengthwise to the bottom. It is convenient to do this with a knife heated over a fire. The bottom wall itself must be left.

Markings are made on the halves of the bottle for installing axles for spools of thread.

Holes for the diameter of cocktail tubes are burned along them on both sides opposite each other. This is done with a soldering iron tip or a heated nail.


Tubes are inserted into the holes, and spools of thread are strung on them.

The excess length of the tubes is cut off. Then a hole is burned in front of each spool and the thread is pulled out through it. It can be picked up with a crochet hook.

After this, the halves of the bottle are pressed and the cap is screwed onto them. That's it, the thread storage system is ready.
