Its small scale also fits sensory bins and sorting and stacking activities, where a set of same-sized pieces gets sorted by color or texture. Crafters use it as miniature dollhouse furniture, standing in for a stool, small table base, or decorative accent piece, and as a board game piece or token for a home-made game set. For an expanded use, a set finished in different paint colors works as a matching or memory-game piece for early learning activities.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003e\u003cspan style=\"text-decoration: underline; color: #000080;\"\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400;\"\u003eFrequently Asked Questions\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n    \u003cstrong\u003eDoes the thimble already have a hole drilled through the top for a pull?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\n    \u003cspan\u003eNo. The interior hole is turned into the underside and the top is solid, so a hole needs to be drilled through the top into the cavity before it can be used as a pull.\u003c\/span\u003e\n  \u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n    \u003cstrong\u003eDoes the surface need to be sealed before painting or staining?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\n    \u003cspan\u003eNo sealing is required first.

Because no assembly or sealing step is required, it moves directly from unpacking into painting, drilling, or play use.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Craftparts","offers":[{"title":"Craftparts \/ Pack 10","offer_id":48401685250284,"sku":"NB400200010000","price":3.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Craftparts \/ Pack 50","offer_id":48401685283052,"sku":"NB400200050000","price":13.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Craftparts \/ Pack 100","offer_id":48401685315820,"sku":"NB400200100000","price":24.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0758\/1456\/8172\/files\/NB4002-unfinished-wood-thimble-1-1-8-inch_1.jpg?v=1790131025","url":"https:\/\/www.craftparts.com\/products\/thimble-1-1-8-h-x-15-16w","provider":"Craftparts","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
