Our cottage was originally a weaver's cottage and so these will go very well down there as...
A kitchen roll holder (I will cut off the top circle to make it easier to put the roll on.
...and the other one is perfect as a rustic candle holder. I could even have two matching candle holders I suppose.
I also got some smaller blue bobbins that I am still thinking on...any ideas?
Thank you so much to Terscar for these beautiful old items. They are getting a new lease of life (just not as they knew it!)

Wow, they look great! I especially love the candle holder, unusual and better than most you see in the shops :)
