My friend over at EveryThingQuilts did a post today on RAKing small ornaments. I don't know or care who started it, only that it is such 
a fun idea. Which got me to thinking about a post I did awhile back on all my wooden spools. Because I have such a crummy memory I made a quick unadorned project to remind me next November or early December to get a bunch of these made. I have a box of little Christmas picks with holly and tiny bells etc which would add a lot of charm and variety to the simple idea of ribbon through spool and a list for Santa. And we certainly can use plastic spools too...finally a way to repurpose those!

Don't forget that instant Heirloom Quilt gift... still time to make one of those~

Oh, I love, love, love this idea! I have a bunch of little spools that can be put together with a few beads and dropped. My holiday work is nearly completed so now it's time to spread some cheer. Thanks so much Sharyn.
And thanks for the link.
Great idea!
