The only problem is when I get new thread - especially cones, as they take up so much room. I find I have to buy more rolling carts to accommodate my growing thread collection!Chatterbox Quiltshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15767017688036089387noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4855777234305868053.post-54332097614225458392013-03-12T16:31:49.545-06:002013-03-12T16:31:49.545-06:00Could you cut a piece of pegboard to fit the drawe...Could you cut a piece of pegboard to fit the drawer and use the holes in it for the dowel?Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4855777234305868053.post-9859026745491181722011-08-25T13:36:14.387-06:002011-08-25T13:36:14.387-06:00Good idea, Anne Marie!

I was using these in my bathroom drawers and thought that they might work in my thread carts and I was right! Things are looking much tidied now.Chatterbox Quiltshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15767017688036089387noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4855777234305868053.post-45181419791449370222011-08-24T19:19:36.030-06:002011-08-24T19:19:36.030-06:00You could always use a very thin piece of wood and...You could always use a very thin piece of wood and glue the dowels to it, this was if you wanted to move things around, you could just take out the whole thing, and the drawer would be back to it's original state.Ann Marie @ 16 Muddy Feethttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18043510561974011878noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4855777234305868053.post-86120968991917734512011-08-08T10:14:44.993-06:002011-08-08T10:14:44.993-06:00You're welcome, Heather.
