One of our favorite things to do after we drop the kids off is to hit a thrift store or two. Last night was exceptional for fun finds. I couldn't resist buying these bags of thread. They're on wooden spools! Many of them are still in their original wrap. I was attracted to their colours and the wooden spools. Plus I have this dream that I will still find some time to sew in my crazy fun, busy life. If not, I think I'm going to fine a big glass vase and put them all in the vase and enjoy the riot of colour.
Love the thread! I can just picture it in a big old glass jar of some kind :D
ReplyDeleteAnd glad you're back in the blogosphere... take your time,

You take lovely pictures!
ReplyDeleteI know you will miss your date night on Wednesday evenings! I hope you can sneak in some other date nights during the summer months!
I enjoy looking at thread, too! There's something magnetic about all the colors - and I enjoy looking at an organized rack just as much as I enjoy looking at a haphazard rack.
ReplyDeletethat is such a good idea to put them in a vase. my husbands grandmother gave me her sewing kit and it is filled with wooden spools! thanks for showing me the beauty in this simple treasure!
ReplyDeleteA woman after my own heart. I would be on cloud nine with such a find! I have a few of my mother's and grandmother's threads on wooden spools, I find pleasure in seeing them and touching them.
ReplyDeleteWelcome back! I have missed you!
Wow - what a bonanza! I bet they will look wonderful displayed in a glass vase (and you will have to share photos!).
