Gadgets and DooDads

I found some bargains on non-knitting items that I can convert.
This is a narrow metal stand about 14" tall that was being sold as a magnetic photo display thing. I bought it on clearance to use for my pattern stand.

This is a gift bag like what you might see at weddings. The material has a nice satin-like feel and there is a ribbon at the top for a drawstring closure. I decided it was perfect for my center-pull balls of yarn (shown with my current sock yarn) and they only cost me 10 cents each.
I love a bargain.
