Stash- Embroidery threads

Stash:

Every crafter will have some or other kind of stash. I keep learning many arts and crafts, so my craft room is full of materials, which I organize often. Embroidery is my favourite , so obviously I have stash of embroidery threads. Whenever I go to buy embroidery thread, with some idea in mind, I end up buying other threads too. Some threads look so attractive, I buy them . One way it is good, I have some unique threads, which are out of stock now. As per my capability, I have organized the embroidery threads. Sharing the same in this post:

These are silk embroidery threads, which I use normally for all the embroideries, including machine embroidery. I arrange normally all my craft materials , according to VIBGYOR. Here also I have arranged in the same way.

Used rolls

These are hand embroidery threads, from Anchor. These are available in skeins, I have rolled it on the small plastic sheets and arranges according to the color spectrum: VIBGYOR. Also some, zari threads are there.

These are also hand embroidery threads, which I had got from Goa. Still not tried anything with these threads. Hope I can use these for mirror work.

Skeins

These are called Rimjhim threads, very special. Not available in the market now, I guess. I am embroidering a peacock design with these. This box also has shaded machine embroidery threads.
