"I’m going to show you how to make a sweet pin cushion from an old glass candle jar and a small piece of fabric. My pin cushion is a double upcycle as I used an old pillow case for my fabric, but you can use any medium to lightweight fabric you happen to have.

I have a friend who uses a lot of scented candles and she always gives me the empty jars when she has finished with them. Over the years I’ve used them for all sorts of things. Once they’ve been through the dishwasher they make great water or spirit glasses and they are great for storage in the bathroom for reusable makeup remover pads or cotton buds etc. This time though I’ve got a little more creative to upcycle these sturdy glass jars into pin cushions."  Comment from Julie of Sum of Their Stories.com
