I have finally gotten my silhouette to work!! Stupid blade held me up for almost a year!! I got inspired from pintrest and decided to make {another} book bag for school. This one speaks for itself though I think :)
I had nearly filled up a basket with threads and have seen a couple wall mounted holders that looked interesting but I really wanted something with my own little flair. So I made one. And here's how. First things first, I grabbed a rectangle of plywood I had from a previous project and cut it to roughly the size of what I wanted. Then I painted a background of what I wanted (inspired by Pinterest- an overly pixelated shot of Greenland. If I can find the owner of it I'll credit them.) Once I was happy with how that turned out, I started on the framing. I measured out some trim wood (from same previous project) and painted them black. I also drilled a small hole in the center top of the board for easy and safe hanging. My furry little helper made sure I didn't drip anywhere in his favorite area. While those dried, I laid out where I wanted the thread spools to go and tapped in 2" nails just enough that they would stay but had most of the nail sticking out. Even made
