By now I have a bunch of these cards with left over yarn. I’m looking for a solution to store it properly (bring same colors from different cards together, label them with the correct ID numbers, …) but I’m not sure how.
Space is definitely an issue so I was thinking about one of these TCG albums… any better ideas? How do you store your yarn?
I use the little flat plastic bobbins. They don’t take up a lot of space, and you can write the DMC number on the top with a sharpie. I keep mine in a plastic thread storage box. I have a big double sided one now because my floss collection quickly outgrew the first one I got lol. It’s nice because even the big box doesn’t take up much room, it snaps shut so nothing falls out and it keeps things organized. I got all this stuff from JoAnn’s (rip) and Michaels, but any big craft store should have them or you can just order them on Amazon.
Walmart carries these floss storage bins for like $5. I have 4 of them and about 3 bins full of threaded floss. The bobbins are the best. I splurge on the plastic ones as the paper ones are only good fpr maybe 1-2 full uses before they’re unusable.
Oh yeah I always get the plastic ones, I would destroy the paper ones by the time I got the floss on them lol
That looks so satisfying o:
It was definitely a big improvement over my old system which was just a big plastic bag full of loose bobbins lol it really helps me keep track of inventory so I don’t end up buying more of colors I already had because I couldn’t find them or they weren’t labeled properly
