for years i've had this stash of embroidery thread from my grandmother. it's gotten used for so many things and pretty soon i'll have to replenish my supply:) it has come in handy for wrapping packages, making necklaces, hanging things, driftwood photo frames, and of course embroidery. i'm all about supplies looking pretty when they aren't being used so i came up with this simple idea. i had several pieces of driftwood leftover from last summers scavenging on lake erie so they got put to use. now these lovely colors are on display on my desk!
you'll need >> sticks or driftwood of your choice | embroidery thread, bakers twine, ribbon | jar or vase | knife
make a notch in the end of the stick (or use one that's already there). wrap the thread around the stick from beginning to end & slide the last bit of the thread through the notch to hold in place. display in a pretty jar, vase or container!
