Pin Cushion

Good Morning All

A little late today as I dont usually post 2 days on  the run but I have shared this pin cushion on my Facebook page so I thought I would add on here too.

I had a project in mind but needed alot of straight pins. I bought quite afew of these boxes  of them in the local China shop.
The project did not work out by the  way LOL.

Too good to throw out so decided to decorate them in a Shabby chic style.
It is about 3" in diameter.


This is how it turned out, not too fussy. Just lace trim on the sides and a small doily on top after stuffing. A lace bow with a pearl gem.

I have done some more but they are for a DT blog so you will have to wait to see those.
So that is a little inspiration for you and dont throw things out, you may be able to decorate.
I have already sold this and another one like it, so more shopping for the village charity this week.
