I made these pin cushions from thrifted containers and scraps of batting and fabric. I think they turned pretty darn cute, what do you all think?

I bought a cute angel vase from thrift store and made one out of it for pin cushion exchange. It turned out real cute. I really like yours too. Am always looking for things I can make one out of when I go in thrift stores too. Good job.

Love'em. Since the pincushion swap, i've been doing the same thing. Silicone cupcake holders, crystal candle holders, little watering can, icecream sundea cups,etc.
