Thread & Floss Keeper

Tired of losing chunks of valuable tinsels and flosses every time you put them away? Annoyed when that expensive and perfectly spooled wire slips from your grasp and unravels? Well, have I got the solution for you... Child's hair elastics.

Okay. So it doesn't sound earth shattering, but this tip can actually save you time and money, as well as protect delicate silks and flosses.

Very inexpensive, small cloth hair elastics can be purchased at almost any dollar store. Looped around the spool, they secure the material without causing damage - unlike the plastic Cerlox tabs you may have seen elsewhere. Because they are generally synthetic there is also little chance of colour transfer. Larger elastics can be used, but they may have to be doubled up for smaller spools.
