Steps (3 steps, 60 minutes)

1
Create a new document in Silhouette Studio and use your shape tools to create your spool components. I used the circle, polygon and square for the tops and bottoms (about 1.5″ wide), and smaller circles (10 per spool) for the middles

2
Cut the shapes you created using Chipboard (remember to adjust your blade and cut settings)

To add a bit of decoration and color, I cut smaller versions (using the internal offset tool) of the tops and bottoms (from Step 1) in pastel colored cardstock
