Ice Cream Sundae Pincushion


This little pincushion was made for our pincushion challenge on suestreehouse....an area we created in honor of Sunbonnet Sue.
While possibly the easiest pincushion ever....I wish now I had stuffed the pincushion portion instead of using a styrofoam ball. It does look cute and is still my favorite pincushion to display....it doesn't work very well.
It started out as a very inexpensive candle....I removed the candle, filled the glass container with potpourri, covered the styrofoam ball with pink checked quilted gingham....added lace around the edges, some tiny gingham flowers, added a straw and was all done.
Now, I view all small containers with a crafters eye, searching for the next "perfect" pincushion....next time, it will be stuffed..
