What a great idea. I use a mug holder to store my scissors on

Would be great to line up the thread you are using in a project!

You can buy it online if you are not near an Ikea store.

You should never stand your sissora point down always put them handle down or lye them flat I was told this when I was just a wee girl and my grannie was teaching me how to sew this was the first think she taught me.
I just thought I would pest this along I love the thread thingie.

That is just brilliant and the little shop is very near to me and they are having a 50% off sale. Will be there first thing in the morning. Thanks for the tip.

This is great, perfect !!!! IKEA
Thanks Tanja***

I sure like how the thread holder can take the large spools as well as the small ones.

Neat idea! I keep my good scissors on the table beside my machine and the other ones I stand in a container I did up and put mac tac on the outside and on the bottome of the inside I put either a kleenex or paper towel so the point has something soft. They never get a chance to be hung up - lol!

Hello Susanne,
thank you for this wonderful idea. Must be a new modell or I wasn't in the kitchen-shop for longer (most of the time just went straight to the restaurant *lol*) Good to see that I'm not the only "swedish-junkie" ;o)

Way to go girl i love new ideas hus :):)

This is a very nice TIP!

Great idea but unfortunately we do not have a 'shop' like that in South Africa. Sarah.

Fantastic idea. Well spotted. Jan

Great idea! Thank you for sharing.

When I saw this photo on Saturday I loved the idea, but didn't think I would be able to get one. Then yesterday I went to Sydney with my son and DIL to pick up GD from the airport and we arrived with a bit of time to spare and DIL said "would you like to have a quick look at Ikea". I have never been there before and I agreed and said there was something I was interested in getting if possible. I now have one of these but I will pack a lunch if I ever get to go to that shop again, it is HUGE!

What a quaint idea! I have an idea that a dish drainer for the kitchen would be less expensive than something that did the same thing but was designed for sewing! I am not going to go out looking for one but most likely will keep my eyes open when I do go in a store.

if you need more Ikea has 9 inch wall clocks for 1.99 and you can get ram wooden 5x7 picture frames 3 for 1.99. They even have fabric.

If you need more excuses to go to your next IKEA-store here are some ideas :o)
And I'm pretty sure you will find much more than you need *lol*
