Clay Pot Cupcake Pin Cushion

Craft Lightning is here again!!!!   I love it!   The theme this time was Clay Pots!   There are so many things that you can do with clay pots other than using them as flower pots!   I made this adorable little Cupcake Pin Cushion with mine!   It took less than 15 minutes!!!

Materials used:
9″ x 12″ craft cut of Kunin Felt Cooridnates:  1 White Dot of Candy Pink
Fairfield Poly-fil Poly-Pellets
Hot Glue Gun and Hot Glue Stick
Plaid’s FolkArt Color Shift Paint:  Blue Violet Flash
Paint Brush
Embroidery Floss and Needle
Scissors
Red Pom Pom

How I made it:
Paint the Pot!!!  I used this awesome FolkArt Color Shift Paint from Plaid!

 

  1. I cut a circle from my felt.  It didn’t have to be a perfect circle.  It’s about 8 inches across.  I also ran a quick stitch around the edge with the embroidery floss.
  2.  I flipped the felt over and added the Poly-pellets to the middle.
  3.  I pulled the embroidery floss until the circle closed up around the Poly-pellets.  I also just did a few quick stitches over the hole to close it up.
  4.  Using the hot glue gun, I added glue to the inside of my pot and stuffed the Poly-pellet filled felt down into the pot.

5.  Using the hot glue gun, I glued the red pom-pom on the top!   And then I added my pins!

I hope you like this Clay Pot Pin Cushion!
