Little Poka Dot Pumpkin Pin Cusions

While antiquing I found these sweet vintage wooden "salts". Perfect to make a sweet little pumpkin pin cushion! I have painted the wooden salts black and have added rusty orange poka dots. Then lightly antiqued. The pumpkins are made from some beautiful over dyed velvet, from Fiddlestix Designs. I have added crushed walnuts and real wool to keep your pins sharp, securely attached to the wooden salts. Then I have added some black pins and a little charm. I have 3 Halloween charms and 4 with sewing charms. Topped with a real dried stem. These sweet little pin cushions measure 3 inches wide and 2 1/2 inches tall. I have 7 to offer. Each sold separately. Shipping is included in the price. ALL SOLD THANK YOU!!!

***** All Sold, Thank You! Pumpkin Mouse Pinkeep

It’s almost fall, Y’all! I love the autumn weather and all of its beautiful colors! Fall in New England is absolutely gorgeous and so inviting that I had to put aside my summer stitching to create just for this season. These sweet little mice were first on my list. The cotton fabric is a perfect shade of orange with tiny little X’s. I added a green wool leaf, a few black glass-head pins, an owl charm, a mother of pearl button and an antique corsage pin. I couldn’t resist adding a tiny mohair mouse with a little orange bead on his tail. The pumpkin stem is a real stem from my garden. The entire pinkeep sits firmly in an antique zinc mason jar lid. Kindly asking $75 and $10 for travel fare. Please note...I have several of these available with all different stems so you may get one that looks a little different from the pictures.

This one is a little smaller than my red tomatoes. I added a few black pins, a beautiful antique glass swirl pin, and a silver heart in hand charm. It’s firmly stuffed/filled with 2 1/2 - 3 cups of crushed walnut shells to keep your pins and needles sharp. The pink strawberry is firmly attached to the tomato. It is approximately 4 1/2” tall. Kindly asking $85.00 and $10.00 for travel fare.

Velvet Heart

Made from a vintage piece of red velvet that I dyed a bit with coffee this sweet heart is reminiscent of bygone Valentine's Days. A piece of repro red print cotton backs the heart of velvet while 2 vintage mother-of-pearl buttons adorn the front. It makes a lovely pincushion as it is stuffed with wool homegrown in my state of Pennsylvania to keep your pins from rusting. The heart will also make a lovely addition to a bowl or basket. It measures 7 1/4 inches tall and 5 1/2 inches wide. This is the last of my red velvet so I cannot take orders. There are two available. I am kindly asking $30 each which includes the cost of shipping.
