Mix & Match for Customized Thread Storage

Important Drawer Compatibility & Accessibility Information

Drawer Height: The IKEA ALEX 9-drawer unit has different drawer depths. Serger cones and king spools fit only in the bottom four drawers. Please measure your spools and confirm adequate drawer clearance before ordering, accounting for the additional 0.375" height of the wooden trays.

Drawer Accessibility: IKEA ALEX drawers do not extend completely, which may make the last few rows of thread difficult to reach without removing the trays. We include these rows to maximize available storage space.

Natural Wood Characteristics: Our trays are made from wood, which may contain natural grain variations, small knots, or minor imperfections. We carefully select our materials, but these natural characteristics do not affect the trays' intended function.

Less Searching. More Stitching!

Your embroidery and sewing projects deserve an organized workspace. Give your thread collection a dedicated home and turn your IKEA ALEX drawers into a customized storage system that makes every project easier to manage.
