A felt flower tops of this pretty pin cushion created in a mini candle holder. You can also use a mini flower pot, metal pot or small cup to create this pin cushion. Use to decorate your sewing room or give us a gift to someone who loves to sew. This clever project comes to us from Ashley Johnston of Make It and Love It.

  3.  Start shoving it full with batting. Glue one more side down and shove as much batting in as you can. You want it to be tight with batting so that you can shove pins in.
