Materials: Rationell Variera, old cupboard door
Description: I live in a room in a shared house and like to do yarnbombing. My old setup was basically a perpetual mess - I use that table to put lots of other stuff on and the cones or yarn would collapse and tangle.
Inspired by this hack, I trekked to Ikea and bought a bunch of Rationell Variera bag holders, two Bygel cup things, and a Ribba painting rail that I wanted to use for the machine tools but didn't end up using. (not enough vertical space)
I found an old cupboard door in my shed and now I have an awesome yarnbombing station.

ReplyDeleteYeah, mm, sort of. Initially I stuck on the yarn holders with the doublesided tape that comes with them. After about 6 months that didn't quite hold and then I put in some screws to
