It's kinda goofy to hang on to your empty spools, but on days when I'm feeling discouraged that I don't get as much sewing done as I think I should, this jar of empty spools gives me a boost of encouragement - maybe I haven't been goofing off as much as I think!
Saw this cute idea for empty thread spool ornaments ... http://www.bhg.com/christmas/ornaments/make-a-vintage-spool-christmas-ornament/

Empty spools make me smile. Oh so many years ago my mom would give us her empty spools and a shoe lace. We would spend hours stringing the spool to make a necklace. Boy were we glamorous!
