Bottle Cap Pincushion :: Pine and Wine
Does anyone still use a pin cushion? i just realized i dont. maybe im lazy but i keep all mine in a vintage candy tin (okay or maybe i justl like candy) i have a lid because i tend to carry the pins around the house with me, crafting in every room… but a pin cushion is just as safe. and look how CUTE these ones are. much nicer to leave out on the coffee table than an old rusty tin… or all lined up on a shelf.
