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.

Paint piece of wood and skewers
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.
Mark on the wood where you want the skewers to go.
After you figured out where the skewers are going drill a hole there.
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.
After the glue is dried, take some more paint and touch it up.
(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.
