PowerPoint 2010 - Keep needing the same shape(s) - How to save?

I keep using a hollow circle and hollow rectangle with a certain color code.  Is there any way I can place these in a "frequently used" pallete somwhere?

Thanks and have a great weekend.
I realise I'm late to the party on this question but I've been thinking for some time about creating a simple add-in for saving custom shapes. In parallel, there is already a product called SwiftPrez which includes a feature that allows you to create a library of custom shapes from simple squares, circles etc. to more complex multi-shape illustrations, groups, tables, charts etc. Disclaimer, it's from the company I work for and is primarily provided to enterprise organisations for multiple users. Basically what I'm doing is agreeing with Echo and confirming that there is no "built in" mechanism in PowerPoint for doing what you want so you either build your own library as Echo suggests, design some VBA code to do it yourself or purchase a third party solution.
