I still have my empty spools from the last three or four years and I am wondering what I should do with them. Maybe I will have to make something artsy with them.

Since we see very good uses for selvages which might be thrown away with out the creativity seen on this blog, I wonder what I can do with those spools. I've asked around and can't seem to give them to nursery schools where kids could play with them, seems they want more "educational" toys.June Calenderhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00265808476144632255noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8963026736416502396.post-82190148615913417362017-01-12T09:12:55.498-05:002017-01-12T09:12:55.498-05:00I never think to save them as I give them to my si...I never think to save them as I give them to my sister for her grammar school students to re-purpose.
