Your shabby pin cushions are so beautiful so many great ideas that you had just love them all. You've done an amazing job making them look like great grandma's pin cushion. You definitely nailed the shabby chic of it all!! You sure are one clever, creative and talented gal. Joan Smith
Wow. Great ideas for containers for bases. Finally, something to do with the little sacks of pretty odds and ends from the charity shop! Some scraps from my quilting box and rocks/pebbles/sand from the dollar store and a new pincushion is added to my collection. Thanks, and much success with your channel.
Your pin cushions are shabbyrific!!! I bet they sell so well at the market!!! I will now be on the hunt for glass candle holders on my thrift shop and dollar store outings so I can try some too! I think many of my friends and family would LOVE to receive a handmade gift this beautiful and thoughtful! Your tutorial is fabulous and so are you! Thanks so much and big crafty hugs from Seattle WA ;)
Went to one of my local thrift shops and found ten of these candle holder thingys 2 for 99 cents! Would have never thought of looking at. Using these before until now. Squee!
This are great, made one for my daughter, and she loved it, thanks. Oh by the way were did you buy the small spool and scissors on one of your pin cushion?

I love all your work and just found you today through Tmika from ScrapDaWorld. You are amazing artist and I have learned so much from you. Thank you for sharing your work with us!!! Would love to do a swap with you at some point.
Thank you for sharing this beautiful pin cushion. Could you tell use exactly where you purchase these beautiful candle holders? I have searched the internet and cant seem to find anything like these. Thank you
Kathy Sheeran hey there I just pick them up when I hunting at the thrift shops....little candle holders...wee vases there are many things you can use once you start looking for things :) I have recently been making some out of old silver ware...little porcelain trinket boxes are great as you can use the lid and have things inside :)
Thanks so much for sharing this> these are so darn cute! Easy too. If u dont mind my asking, How much do u sell these for at craft fairs or other places?
Just found your pin cushion tutorial while searching to hopefully find an answer to a problem I've been having. I watched as you used your glue gun on the glass. Have you had any problems with glue guns and glass? Seems mine doesn't want to stay stuck! Are you using a special glue stick? Like your pin cushion!
