storing thread

[Regis]

I don't use thread very fast. I bought some quantity and colors that will last me a couple years. Is there harm in storing thread in plastic storage box where temperature may reach 100 degrees? I previously had a lot more air conditioned space than I now have :

Thanks,

Regis

Hi Regis,

I don't think 100° F would cause much of a problem although swings in humidity from very dry to very humid could cause problems; in a car or shed is probably not the best. The biggest culprit is definately sunlight, or UV.
