I used to store all the leftover laces in a ziplock bag. How about you? Are you one of those people who alway organize their sewing supplies neat and pretty?
If you are, I want to be your friend right away. 🙂
Today I want to share my vintage woodspool makeover idea.
These are all things I bought at Michaels craft store on a black Friday sale.
You’ll need 2 colors of Martha Stewart paints and cheap woodspools.
First, rub a woodspool with Antique Wax color using a cloth.
Let it dry and then apply lighter color paint (mine is called Smoke) roughly, not completely.
At last, I touched a very dark colored ink on the edge of the wood spool. It’s optional.
If you have a spool lable stamp, color it like I did.
I stamped the image on a brown paper and colored with a bit of blue and orange copic markers. Then rubbed it with a dark color using a sponge. Cut it out and wrinkle it so it looks old.
Finally, apply Mod podge all over the spool to coat and tada!~
My 8 years old daughter looked at me and said,
“Mommy, you are lieing.”
Well, if you don’t have budget to purchase original vintage woodspool, this idea is very cute, I believe. 😉
I hope my photo inspire you a bit and thank you for stopping by.
constantly i used to read smaller articles which as
well clear their motive, and that is also happening with this
paragraph which I am reading here.
Thanks for sharing your thoughts about vacuum cleaner pets.

Hello, of course this paragraph is truly pleasant and I have learned lot of things from it concerning
blogging. thanks.
Very nice tutorial!
Thank you so much! 🙂
That’s such a fun idea! Didn’t even know there was such a thing as distressed ink. I roll my ribbons and put them in a clear jar. Semi-organized. I cleaned up my sewing/dining area for guests visiting and now I can’t find anything.
Thank you so much! 🙂
Thank you so much!:)
Absolutely love your new “vintage” wooden spools! Thank you for the tutorial. I have to admit, I love organising my sewing supplies. I am using wooden spools for ribbons, lace but they look too new. So now I have a new project on my list. Thank you! 🙂
Thank you!:)
I LOVE these – practical, useful but beautiful decorative pieces. A great combination! So pretty!
Hi Erin, Thank you for your sweet comments.
