LoOk wHat I gOt!

It is such a special treat when the wrapping of a gift is half the fun of receiving the gift.  I got this little treasure from my good friend Paula a few days before Christmas.  I enjoyed the wrapping so much it sat on my desk for several days before I opened it.

 This darling pin cushion is made from a vintage tart tin and hand dyed wool.....again, it will sit on my desk so I can enjoy it.
I'm hoping we can talk Paula into telling us how it's made...she is spending a little time with husband Jay during the holidays.....maybe after that?....stay tuned....
