If you’re anything like me, you probably love sewing… but not so much the mess that comes with it. For years, I struggled with finding a way to keep all my beautiful threads visible, tidy, and easy to grab.
That’s why I decided to make my own SKÅDIS – compatible thread holders (and now I’m thrilled to share them with you too!)
Once I popped them onto the board and hung up all my threads, I couldn’t believe the difference. Suddenly, everything was right there in front of me — tidy, colourful, and inspiring. It made my workspace feel calmer and so much more enjoyable to use.
Why I love using them
Here’s what I’ve found since using them every day:
- Everything is visible – No more rummaging through boxes or drawers to find the right colour.
- It saves space – My desk is clearer, and I’ve made the most of my wall space.
- It just looks lovely – Seeing all those colours lined up gives me a little spark of joy every time I walk into my sewing room.
- They actually stay put – The holders are a perfect fit for the SKÅDIS board, so they don’t wobble or fall out.
I genuinely made these for myself first — because I needed a solution that worked. But after friends saw my setup and asked for their own, I realised I had to make them available to others too. So now you can get them from my shop and create your own organised (and beautiful!) sewing space.
A few little tips
If you get some for yourself:
- Try sorting your threads by colour – it’s so satisfying!
- Mix and match sets to fill your pegboard just how you like it.
- Keep a few extra holders spare — you’ll be surprised how quickly your thread collection grows.
Final thoughts
I truly believe a tidy sewing space helps you feel calmer, more creative, and more inspired to make beautiful things. These SKÅDIS thread holders have completely transformed mine, and I hope they’ll do the same for you.
