Description
The pillow that, with a diameter of 20 centimeters and about 60 cm long, is used to create bobbin lace is known as a bobbin lace. Its function is to keep the bobbins in place and prevent them from sliding while the caser works on his design.
The bolillero has a cylindrical shape. It is a piece specifically designed to hold the bobbins during the lacing process. The pad can be made of various materials, such as fiber-filled, strategically placed pins , or even cushions with a cork base.
Roll
A bolillo is a small stick or stick, generally made of wood, bone, ivory or modern plastic materials, which allows you to make trimmings and lace .
Each bobbin has a specific shape and often a spindle-shaped tip. They are used to wrap thin threads or cords around them while lace is weaved.
The thread is wound around the thinner end, which remains taut due to the weight of the thicker part. Bobbins are handled in pairs, and the bobbin lace technique involves braiding, twisting and crossing the threads around the bobbins precisely to create patterns and designs.

Container for balls
In several South American countries, the container used to contain and mix the balls of a draw is called a bolillero. It should be noted that a bolilla is a small ball that is numbered .
The balls are mixed in the ball mill before being extracted one by one.
In this way, to carry out a raffle, it is possible to use a bolillero or drum with balls. The procedure is as follows: first the balls are placed in the ball rolling and then, at random, they are extracted one by one. Luck favors whoever has a card or ballot with the number of the ball that is drawn.
Bolilleros are usually used to determine how groups of competitors are formed in a sporting event. In a world soccer championship, to mention one possibility, each team is represented by a ball. These balls are placed in balls and thus, as they come out, the groups of the first phase are defined randomly.
