# Slender Sewing Kits Fixes & Stitches Packaging is an Unusually Compact Way of Storing Spools By Amelia Roblin | Published 2012-07-12 | Marketing Source: Trend Hunter, https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/fixes-stitches References: [packagingoftheworld](http://www.packagingoftheworld.com/2012/06/fixes-n-stitches-student-work.html) & [samdananrbonmade](http://samdanan.carbonmade.com/projects/3524449) Accordion style cabinets and extra-large container tubs are what one might be used to seeing as the storage containers for haberdashery. This trim and tidy Fixes & Stitches caddy is far from matching either of those images, and this is the basis of its appeal. Sam Danan used an old metal bolt box for a mending basics kit. After all, there is a way to curtail and streamline your sewing supplies into a handy collection of emergency cobbling equipment. Here we have four neutral-toned spools of thread that fit perfectly into the long and narrow coffer. Meanwhile, an insert was custom-fitted for Fixes & Stitches to organize needles and a slot for scissors. The charming case is gussied up with a fresh coat of red paint, embroidered accents and a printed silver lid. ## Trend Insights (Trend Hunter) - Score: 0.5/10 - Popularity: 6% | Freshness: 8% - Audience gender: 50% men, 50% women - Primary generations: Gen Z, Millennial, Gen X - Top markets: North America ## Categories [Trend Hunter](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends) > [Marketing](https://www.trendhunter.com/marketing) > [Branding](https://www.trendhunter.com/branding) ## Key Themes ### What's Driving This Trend - **Compact Sewing Kits:** There is a need for compact and portable sewing kits that are easy to store and bring along. - **Custom-fitted Sewing Supply Storage:** Custom-fitted and organized storage solutions for sewing supplies are becoming more in demand. - **Multi-functional Sewing Kits:** Sewing kits with multiple tools and functions are gaining popularity among DIY enthusiasts. ### Who This Affects Most - **Crafts and DIY Industry:** There is an opportunity for the crafts and DIY industry to produce and market compact, custom-fitted, and multi-functional sewing kits. - **Travel Industry:** Travel companies can develop and sell compact and portable sewing kits for travelers and adventurers. - **Fashion Industry:** Fashion companies can offer custom-fitted sewing supply storage and multi-functional sewing kits to enhance their design and production process. ## Related on Trend Hunter - [Compact Sewing Studios](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/nouvelle-danse.md) - [Metallic Multifunctional Storage Boxes](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/kabine-101.md) - [Modular Storage Cabinets](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/modular-storage-cabinet.md) - [Storage Box-Transformed Furniture](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/chunks-and-blocks.md) - [Cookie Tin Beauty Palettes](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/creative-beauty-palette.md) - [Design-Conscious Tool Sets](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/hoto-tools-hand-tool-set.md) - [Compact Steel Storage](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/multidrawer.md) - [Handheld Garment Repair Devices](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/chameleon-mini.md) - [Lightweight Soft-Body Underbed Storage](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/seasonal-storage.md)
