My mom has a really nice, super durable, vintage sewing caddy that holds everything she needs for sewing. And it fits nicely on a shelf in the closet. I've tried to find one just like it, but to find one like my mom's I think a thrift store is my best bet. I've been checking in thrift stores for a while without success, so I settled on a fishing tackle box at the Goodwill for $1.50 and thought I would give that a try.
It will work for now until I find something better. The tackle box isn't quite right for thread storage, nor does it have enough compartments for all my thread. But it works okay for now.
Those vintage sewing boxes! OH they just knew what women wanted from a sewing box back in the day! I too have been looking for one!
