Gravy boat pin cushion
#101
I am a little afraid to put hot glue into a pretty china cup or bowl. Is there something else we could use, that we could remove later if we needed to? I am afraid the hot glue gun glue would not wash out very well...and I like the idea of using the brillo pad to keep the pens sharper.

I like brillo pads too :-)

Does that gravy boat say Chen on the bottom of it? It looks just the china that belongs to my husband's great or was it just great grandmother and was handed down to us. I love the pattern...
Love the idea of the gravy boat pin cushion as some times you need a place to put buttons and other little sewing items. The plate part will help hold those in a safe place. Great idea...

Hi Val. All I did was to make a fabric covered ball of poly stuffing and just stuffed it into the gravy boat. It was big enough that it filled the boat and expanded to make a tight fit.
