Do you have any tips for storing my sewing supplies?

Organising your sewing supplies can be a bit of a challenge, and with so many small bits and bobs that can easily get lost, broken or misplaced, it is important that you ensure proper storage. We recommend using clear containers where necessary, as this will allow you to see inside of each box to check what is inside. Otherwise, labels can also be effective. For smaller items, you could use plastic containers that feature dividers, or for a more affordable option, you could consider using clear plastic bags, such as the ones that are used for freezing food. Whereas, clothes pegs are perfect for wrapping your thread around, keeping everything tidy whilst also allowing for easy access. You could also create your own storage, with sewing patterns at Spotlight for that purpose.

Keep on top of your sewing supplies and shop the superb selection of storage that we have available. With storage solutions that have been specifically designed to keep your kit in order and our guaranteed low prices across the collection, discover everything that you need to store your haberdashery essentials.
