ArtBinFloss Finder Box: Clear Sewing Organizer with 6 Compartments, 12 Dividers, Durable - Perfect for Embroidery Floss and Small Sewing Supplies Storage

Don’t be fooled by other extremely expensive floss storage systems, these boxes plus plastic bobbins are all you need. They are sturdy, they stack well, and they fit in small storage spaces. I have almost every DMC cotton floss color, more than one skein for many, and they all fit in 6 boxes.

I ordered these because I wanted a smaller form factor for organizing my cross stitch floss. I was using a large, 11" ring like a someone with a ton of keys would use and snack sized baggies with the corners hole punched to keep my floss in one place. It got a little tedious flipping back and forth between the baggies to find the correct color I needed. It also took up a ton of room in the bin I use to hold my cross stitch supplies.Convenience: So, I've switched over to using the plastic DMC bobbins and I'm happy to report that these boxes do allow you to store the bobbins upright so the number labels are easy to see. I definitely didn't want to make things hard on me by having to lay the bobbins on their sides where the labels were more obscured.Size: These boxes hold several bobbins as well. I ordered three boxes in total because the projects I work on are tens of thousands of stitches and use ~150 different colors each. Two of the boxes I keep out for current colors I'm using and the third holds the ones I have but am not currently using. A full box, for me, holds about 120 bobbins of floss, with each row in the box holding about 30 bobbins with floss.Construction: I will say I also like these boxes come with dividers. I have one box with some dividers inserted to keep extra empty bobbins, packages of needles, needle threaders, and snips in. I don't have to worry about the threaders slipping underneath the dividers and getting mixed in with other stuff in the box. This was an annoyance I experienced with other types of cheaply made boxes I've had in the past. The boxes are also made of thick plastic that hold their shape and don't warp and flex. The latches are also thick and seem like they'll hold up with tons of use over time. The clear plastic also allows the color labels to be seen without needing to open up the boxes.Overall Verdict: 10/10 would recommend!

I wish I would have played closer attention to it only fitting DMC floss. It’s a great storage case just none of my holders fit.

Unfortunately, I didn't get to use this product but I can tell you from experience, they are wonderful!It's just a shame that I ordered the wrong size!

Grab a pair of scissors so that you can cut the dividers. They come attached together in about four sheets. It didn't take long to cut them and trim them for a perfect fit with the slots.The lid will pop off if you're not careful. I consider that both a plus and a minus. I was able to snap it back into place without a problem. That's one aspect of the plus rating. The other is stackability. I ordered two more of these boxes because one box wasn't enough to store my thread bundle.The thin walls are another plus and minus. They're too thin to hold a bobbin winder, but their translucence will allow me to check my supplies without having to physically open the box.

Does the job storing my embroidery floss! My only gripe is that after manually separating the plastic dividers I had to use scissors to snip off extra plastic pieces between each one, because otherwise they stick out and won’t fit in the divider slots. Not a huge deal though, I was able to cut them down enough so they’d fit!

If you're like me, you've bought so many stitching storage products in the past from the big Dar*** (you know the one). I was never happy with the D-brand floss boxes as they always felt very flimsy and looked kind of crappy and, honestly, the hinges and clips being just a bent piece of plastic never feel very secure.Self, I said, there's got to be a better way. There's got to be a better floss box.I'm a big fan of ArtBin products for storing art stuff and fabric stuff, they may cost a little more but I've always found their design to be thoughtful and the quality much better. Distinct hinges, free-moving clips, handles, everything seems well thought out and tested for usability. This floss box is no different - it feels roomier and holds a ton of floss. The compartments are wider and the dividers movable so you can fit more than just floss in it, which is great for my "travel box" of embroidery supplies. What, doesn't everyone have a travel box of embroidery supplies?Anyway. The plastic is a heavier weight than D-brand, it feels very sturdy without being bulky. The hinges are just that, actual hinges, and I don't feel like they're going to warp or crack from overuse. The clips are also separate pieces, large, and easy to open and close securely. There's a built-in handle under the clips which I really like. Overall just a great little box for your stuff.

I was looking for, and found, a box for floss that would hold the floss standing upright instead of sideways. This box fits both. It feels relatively sturdy, although I won't be taking to and fro, it will mostly just sit in my supplies area. It latches well and it's easy to customize the size of compartments you want. Highly recommend.
