I have had a bunch of thread laying around and I needed a way to organize it. The thread racks they sell in crafts stores was like ten dollars and I don't have money like that to buy one so I decided to make one. I had all the supplies except for the skewers and I only spent fifty cents on the skewers so the total cost of the project is fifty cents.
1
Paint piece of wood and skewers
2
Once the paint is dry cut the skewers. I cut them at three inches. You can have them as short or long as you want.
3
Mark on the wood where you want the skewers to go.
4
After you figured out where the skewers are going drill a hole there.
5
Once you finished all the holes take the skewers and dip one end in glue and stick it in one of the holes. Repeat with the rest of them.
6
After the glue is dried, take some more paint and touch it up.
7
(Optional)-Decorate it with ribbons, buttons, beads, or what ever you have. I used lace ribbon.

And now you are finished and have an awesome thread rack.
