There is an old suitcase and there is a mass of needleworking trifles (as well as tools) that you need to somehow streamline?
We combine and get such a chest for needlework. On these photos are the simplest, but already convenient storage options for needleful trifles.
So that in the handwelded chest has always been order, sort items and fold them in small boxes or baskets. In one - coils and braid, to another - yarn, to the third - napkins for decoupage or loskutka. For beads you can buy special transparent boxes with separators. Fabric and wrapping paper can be collapsed into rolls or gently fold - so it will take less space and always will be in sight.
In a suitcase, you can keep books and magazines on needlework, patterns and sketches. There, there is a place and unfinished products that you are not ready to show someone.
Maximum order in a suitcase for needlework:
Singing along the walls of pockets or gum-holders for smallest things. The little things can also be stored in bags (homemade or gift) or small wallets on the zipper. If you have a lot of large items - insert separators from color cardboard.
Not only the inner part of the suitcase is suitable for storage, but also its lid. There you can sew pockets and coil holders, jars with beads, sets of buttons, needles and pins, scissors, spokes and other tools. If you like to draw the sketches of future products yourself, attach and attach a notebook to the lid.
The lid can play and decorative role. If the suitcase is constantly open, turn it into the decor element. Suspend to the cover of the finished jewelry, small toys, flowers of fabric and paper, decorate it with postcards and stickers. The needlework chest can become not only a showcase for your work, but also a mirror of your individuality.
Small suitcases or chests can also come in handy:
For example, they can be adapted for a particularly beloved type of creativity (or some kind of fittings) or make for a small daughter, making the first steps in needlework.
Comfortable needlework chest for knitting lovers:
Make comfortable holders on the inside of the lid, and the main compartment will be free: there are perfectly spread with shirts with yarn.
Suitcake-chest for an artist or to store inspiring items:
Artists can thus keep the palette, brushes and pencils - no longer have to shake them out of the depths of the bag! And if you, following the example of Kelly Hoppen, collect "inspiration boxes," - place the most valuable items in such a "magic chest" from an old suitcase.
