Can an idea be brewing in your mind for years?


Well, it sure can in my head!
The minute I bought this old light fixture part
I just knew what I wanted to transform it into.
Of course, I bought it a few years ago so it's been
brewing for quite a while now!!!

You've heard of a "make do" right?
I tried to find a good definition and the best one I could find was:
"something contrived to meet a need"
Well, that's perfect!

This old light fixture part serves as the perfect base
for a beautiful damask pincushion!!
It's a big one....maybe the only one a person would need ~
it was so fun to make.
I filled it with a mixture of crushed walnut shells and fiberfill.....
so it has a wonderful weight to it.

It's so good to see an idea you've had actually
be completed ~ even it takes a couple of years!!!

Wishing you a beautiful weekend dear friends
as we honor our precious fathers!

hugs and love,
Dawn
