    Default Pincushions I made from thrift store finds

    I found some small tea cups, candle holders, dessert cups, etc at a thrift store for 10 cents each and have made four, so far, Christmas presents. So sorry, I am still trying to figure out why these are coming up sideways. They don't look like this in Dropbox.

    They are really cute! Great way to re-use an older item.

    Great work. I would love to do some like these but I am glue challenged.
