Custom pincushions
One of my favourite things to do is make custom items. Last week was a pincushion week and both have found new homes in the USA. The top one is a delicious moldy one and the lower, my popular 'pixie cups' design.
I had an edition of pincushions in my Etsy shop using re-purposed shot glasses. After making about 30 of them I skipped off to Habitat to buy some more and horror! I was told the line was completely discontinued. So...I've had to play with new designs which have internal supports instead. These are my first two goes, one has a plastic disc, the other half a felt stone inside to make them stand up independently, both work well.

They're just superb.
Oh, so lovely! A shame that the shot glasses were discontinued, but I love the stand-alone designs here!
Thank you Lisa and Lauren!! :)
Really loved the shot glass concept, but the new stand alone is even more wonderful!
