Cynthia at Idle Hands Empty Brain walks us through a super simple and fun to make thimble holder (or any little treasure really)
Go on over and check it out. I made mine to hold my thimbles, I added a small lobster claw so that I could attach it to my needle book. Made a couple extra for friends.
Mind you, I only went green as far as using the plastic lids, I must confess that I machine sewed what could be done by machine and of course did the rest by hand
I think these could easily be made in several sizes and have quite a number of possible uses.

Oh my gosh ~ Those are so cute. Now I wanna try some. Leaving now to scour the house for some plastic! Thanks.
Thanks for the link! Your thimble keepers look great!
What a nice little stocking stuffer! Thanks for sharing!!
Clever and thanks for the link. I was thinking they would even be cute for tooth fairy...though my kids are older now.
They sound like fun! Thanks for sharing the idea! :)
Way too cute! Great stocking stuffers for the holidays -- or favors for a party of quilters!

very neat! Thanks for the link.
Thank you for posting this! I've admired similar containers at the Rubin Museum in NYC and made a mental note to myself to try and make them. Now I know how! Your needle case is pretty cool, too. Waht size are these items? (or did I overlook a detail in these tutorials?
VERY clever! AND I have a ton of ice cream bucket lids to try this with too! It was a long hot summer. :D
