Came across this on a design blog I follow. There was some interest in one posted by GlassMaster in the photos area, thought I'd share this one to.

Oh, to have all that silk.

Hello
Thanks for the links to all those great storage options :lol
People collect thread displays and storage safes,we see them in most antique shops,Saw one last week end that was from Rice Thread Co.

Proper Thread Storage Is Very Important,Dust, Dirt and U.V. are the enemies.
I have 2 thread safes that hold the majority of my threads,My Mother was a 4H Leader and taught the girls to mostly Cook and Sew,I have her 2 draw thread storage box,then I have another that I picked up at a tag sale for pocket change with 4 draws,also use a number of plastic thread storage boxes and an acrylic cabinet for my large spools.
Funny my bench always seems to have a few dozen spools kicking around though. :P
I'd gladly trade them all for one like this.

Those are really classy. I would love something like those. I use a rack that is just a bunch of short dowels that each spool sits on....
