New Pin Cushion Design!

I have played around with pin cushions since starting my etsy shop.  I thought I would show off my latest design!!
Yep a mini terra cotta pot painted in gray is the perfect base for your pin cushion...
Then I had this CA-UTE vintage fabric in my stash!!  Love the mushrooms!!
See...it really is a little clay pot...
So I made myself a pin cushion plus one for the ol' etsy shop...get it while it lasts! :) 
I do have enough of the fabric for maybe one more cushion then these will be a product from the past!  Well okay I might make some more but I will have to find another cutesy vintage fabric...cause they would not be the same without that vintage touch!  Or find your own mini pots and get glam with your sewing supplies!
For even more etsy goodness check out Shabby Creek Designs!  She has a 10% off special going on with coupon code TCCE11!  Why not spook up your home this Halloween with one of her Raven pillow covers?? 
Plus so much more....check out Gina's shop today!

Thrifty Finds -- Sewing Notions and Bingo Cards

One of my favorite things to find at thrift stores is sewing notions.  It occured to me that I had never blogged about em.  I found three items this week for 25 cents each.  I pick these up when I see them.  Then when I go to do a project, I may very well have the materials I need already in my sewing cabinet! :) 
So I always make sure to look through the sewing notions at any thrift store!  Also this week I found then GREATEST vintage bingo game!!  I have decided there are waaaay too many vintage bingo cards for one girl...so I have put them up in my etsy shop.  If y'all are in need of some vintage bingo cards drop me a line! 
Did y'all find any treasures this week?  Be sure to link em up at Rhodas!!
