When I first started my blog I planned on sharing all kinds of crafts that I enjoy doing, but as time went on I mainly share my cards because there always seems to be some cards to make for a birthday, get well and here of lately sympathy, so I don't get much chance to do the other crafts I enjoy, but I made these for a friend so I am able to share something other than a card, although I used many of my cardmaking goodies on them.
I have seen these also called place setting card holders, but my attention was for my friend to be able to display pictures of her family in them. Didn't want to give them without something in the holders so I added cards to each of them so she could display until she found pictures she wanted to put in them.
I will share what is in common I used on these all and then under each picture the things I used on each individual one.

These are absolutely delightful Connie! I love your sweet gift idea so much! I think I'll be purchasing some of these photo pins now as I have a bag full of old spools just waiting to be used. Thanks for sharing your wonderful project with us!
These are so darling, Connie! Love the way you decorated them, and the little notes in the holders too!
Gorgeous decorating of these picture holders. I love the colors and I am betting your friend is elated to have these for her pictures too.
Great job. Hugs.
Oh oh Connie. These truly rock my world. Look at the tiny spaces you had to work with. These are exceptionally well done and so so pretty. What a thoughtful gift.
These are wonderful Connie.
They really can be used for photographs, little notes, something special you may want to display.
Such a good idea.
Enjoy your weekend.
All the best Jan
Connie, these are so clever and beautiful and such a nice gift! I've pretty much given up all crafts other than card making and gardening, but I sure do enjoy those. I know these must have been a lot of fun to make and very rewarding.
Connie, your little cotton spool holders are fabulous. Such a unique and wonderful idea. You have embellished each one beautifully with all the pretty bits and bobs. I love the idea of them displaying photos, but I love the inspirational quotes as well
Wow, these are amazing!! I have never seen anything like it before, each one so prettily decorated. You definitely now need to make a set for yourself.
