These 'Miniature Rhino' spools are an easy do-it-yourself project that allows for the creation of vintage-looking photo holders. Thread, wire and tape are commonly found objects that come wrapped in spools. Instead of throwing them out, they can be re-purposed into lovely pieces for the home.
All that is necessary to make these are some wooden spools and a hacksaw. Once you slice a small indent in the spools, you can slide in some photos for display.
The nice thing about this project from the Miniature Rhino blog is that it is not only cost effective but simple to put together. For someone who is looking to add new elements to their abode without spending a fortune, projects like these are ideal.
