What to do with twine.

September 28, 2015 by Michelle Hinckley |

When it comes to must-have household items I have several but among my favorites is twine.
Twine?
Yep. Twine.
Seriously can’t live without it.
It’s hands down one of the most versatile things in my home.

I was walking the isle’s at ACE Hardware the other day. All of the sudden the clouds parted and rays of sunshine beamed upon this…

2500 ft of twine.  Can I get a hallelujah!?

Give me a year, this whole thing will be gone.  Aside from it’s usefulness, it’s pretty darn neat as a bookend/decoration?

The spool hole is just big enough for a pair of scissors for quick cutting.  And not just any scissors, cool iron Chinese scissors.

I do cartwheels when form and function come together.

There’s not a week that goes by that I’m not using it for something.

P.S. have you heard Jim Gaffigan’s comedy skit on twine?
Hillarious.

    I love the idea of the initials with string art. Fabulous! I often use twine for price tags at the collective I’m in. I usually use it on larger tags. There isn’t a piece of twine that I’ve not loved.
