Again, while browsing around Pinterest, I found some adorable little framed pincushions, so I made my own. Luckily my mother has a tonne of old frames sitting in a box in the basement. So I brought out my favorite lime spray paint, and picked a yucky gold ornate frame, and painted it.
I also found some cute gingham in the fabric closet. See, even when I am not at home with my fully stocked craft closet, I can manage to pick my families homes for craft materials!
The small one is the one I found in the basement, and I loved it so much, I did another one that I purchased from the dollar store. It was a gross smoky plastic grey, but had great form to it.
I made these by cutting a piece of carpet padding that fit inside the frame opening, and spray gluing it onto the frame backer board. I then layered thick quilt batting on top of that, then the final gingham fabric layer. I wedged it into the frame.
This one is for my mom.
This one is for my aunt.
