I am going to purchase some golf tees and hot glue them to the bottom of the drawers (I have 500 spools of thread) spacing them for spool sizing (I have large and small spools of threads). My concern is that I'm wondering if the hot glue will adhere to the plastic drawer bottom for a long period of time. I've used the hot glue on plastic in the past and it did not stick for more than a week. I think I will try something similar to a golf tee to see if, in fact, it will adhere. So happy that I found this blog!!!Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09007485134073003977noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7146360213290454204.post-78460224299875269672017-01-27T06:49:26.090-07:002017-01-27T06:49:26.090-07:00Yeeeah!

I am going to combine two of the three thread/bobbin holder suggestions in your blog. I purchased foam board and small dowels at the dollar store. I cut the foam board the same size as the bottom of the box MINUS 1" all around. Then I will paint the foam boards and dowels. When the paint is dry, I will 1)poke holes in the foam board (spaced to hold the spools of thread) 2) cut the dowels to the correct size (long enough to hold the thread and bobbin PLUS 1/4"and 3) place the dowels into the holes. The box is deep enough that I can have two "shelves" and it will be easy to lift the boards out to get the spools of thread and bobbins (encased in the plastic tubing). I hope this makes sense.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03376650734998812233noreply@blogger.com
