Hey Everyone! Here was my entry from last week in OMTWI. I didn’t make it to the next round but I am so proud to go out on something I Love so much! These wooden spools just make me so happy!!

Not only is it functional to store all those little pieces you have left over, it is a great piece of art!!
{So Easy to Make}
All I did was paint the frame, add the hooks and I used DIY colored bakers twine for the string. Then, string on the wooden spools and tie it off… super easy!
I placed this little frame on some shelves I painted in my craft room. I’m a little unhappy with the colors of the shelves so I’m sure I will be repainting those soon… you’ll get to see with my full craft room reveal (one day) : )!
All of the painting was done with the fabulous Decoart acrylic paint!
So what do you think? Do you have wooden spools as much as I do?!

Okay, the bright and cheerful colors from your post just made me smile! I love your duo of shelves, and the frame for your spools of thread? Fabulous! I'd be thrilled if you'd come and share this at the Head to Head Showdown, going on right now at http://www.icantstopcrafting.blogspot.com ~Jen
This is really funny I was only looking at little wooden spools today and my craft store thinking these would look cool with ribbon or cottong on them on a frame or something like that and then I come home to do a bit of surfing and found this!!! This is great I love the bright colours and you have definitely motivated me. I am going back Thursday I think I will be picking up a bag of these!
Thanks for sharing!
This is just too cute of an idea! Really a neat way to display and store some ribbon! Very neat!
That is the cutest storage idea I've ever seen! Thanks for sharing :)
I love when storage looks so pretty it becomes art! I pinned this as an idea for my future craft room. Someday…..
I too pinned this for someday when my craft room is pretty, and not a chaotic mess :)
Love it! Won't you consider sharing with my readers at http://sassafrassalvation.blogspot.com/2012/01/sasss-sunday-salvation-show-7.html ?

This is adorable! A great idea I've never seen before!

I love it! Turquoise is one of my favorite colors!!!
Love your idea! The turquoise and yellow look very happy together. I scored some old wooden spools at the thrift store a while back. This would be a great use for them when I'm done using the thread.
This is so cute and perfect for a craft space. I love the colors you chose too.
