Those are both very pretty. I use a magnetic bowl for my pins, but would love to have a pin cushion like those. I think you have the right idea.

Hummmmmmmmmmmmm, I love my magnetic tool parts bowls. However, I'd not be opposed to finding something to dress up the trays. as in maybe a fabric over!

Those are such pretty pin cushions. I really liked them. Especially the one with flowers running down the top & side.
