March 2025 | Three Thrifty Things
Tip #1: A Creative Way to Store Your Bobbins
Tired of tangled bobbins rolling around your sewing space? A simple toe separator (yes, the kind used for pedicures) makes the perfect organizer! Just slide your bobbins into the slots to keep them neat, tidy, and easy to grab. It’s an unexpected but efficient storage solution!
Bonus tip: Write what type of thread your bobbins are filled with on the toe separator, so you never get your cotton and synthetics mixed up!


Tip #2: DIY Upcycled Dish Scrubby
Don’t toss those mesh produce bags—turn them into a dish scrubby instead! With just a bit of cutting and some simple crochet stitches, you can transform plastic waste into a durable, washable, and free alternative to store-bought dish brushes. It’s an easy project that keeps both your dishes and the planet a little cleaner.
Tip #3: The Blanket Folding Trick That Changes Everything
Ever struggled to pull up a blanket in the middle of the night, only to find it stuck in a bulky fold? Try accordion folding instead! Instead of folding your blanket in half multiple times, fold it back and forth like an accordion. This way, when you get chilly, you can easily pull it up without wrestling with layers. It’s a simple trick that makes staying cozy effortless. No more midnight blanket battles!
