After spending my first week of break wandering aimless through craft stores...I started buying things just because they were on clearance...even if I didn't have a craft for them. My first purchase was a little bag of wooden spools. After getting them home, I came up with this
A cute little spool key chain! Its just as simple as it looks! Grab a bag of these- they come in different sizes...I got the one that was on clearance at the time.
Then get your materials and your hot glue gun
I used bakers twine for my string, and hot glued the end, and wrapped it around, securing it with hot glue as I went.
Then I hot glued the end of the string up- I thought it looked cuter that way!
I could have screwed the eyelet screw into the spool, but my hook was a bit wide for such a small spool. I went ahead and just filled the middle with hot glue, and simply hot glued it in place! Add the keyring and you're done!

Oh so cute! What a good idea.
Here from Sugar Bee Crafts! So cute! These look like they would make great charms as well
Very cute, I think every crafter should have one to use as their emblem either as a key chain or a charm like Lani suggested.
This is so cute!
I have a bag of those little spools just lying around. Think I will make me one of these!! Thanks for the inspiration :)
These are so sweet. And I love that you used baker's twine. Would be cute charms on a bracelet or necklace, too!
