Sweet little sewing project

Here's a very sweet sewing project found at The Stitching Room blog -- she calls it a Thread Holder and has a complete tutorial on this quick craft. I was trying to think of other uses for it, and can see it as a holder for a tiny potted plant or potted herb. Or use some bright Mexican or Southwest themed fabrics to hold a planted cactus. Halloween fabric - a tiny party candy holder? Bandana fabrics - condiment holders for a picnic? For a cat lover, use kitty fabrics for a cat treat holder? Fill it with paperclips on your desk? Can you think of any more uses? Of course, you could always use for a thread holder!
