Thrift store treasure turn into pin cushions

If you remember I went to thrift store last week and I found a couple of treasures in my outing and I decided to turn this cute little tea set into pin cushions. I enjoy the hunt of finding that piece you see instantly and know exactly you want to do with it. I remember spending the day with my good friend and just going to three thrift stores. She was in the hunt for a dresser and at the time I was just a long for the ride.



We had a blast going around and looking at all the furniture at the different stores and comparing prices. Not once did I think I was going to buy anything. We were especially thrilled to be going on an outing for ourselves. We usually have to bring out little kiddos with us but this time around this was a child free outing. We love being moms but at times we forget who we are as individual when our children are not around.


I am lucky that my hubby lets me escape from my daily routine during the weekend for a couple of hours to recharge and I can’t image a better way than to go thrift shopping and in this particular outing I found this cute little tea set. The little legs are damage but I always try to see the potential. I will be placing this cuties on my etsy shop opening soon. So keep an eye out.



What will you repurpose today?
