Tea Cup Faux Fur Pin Cushion!

Tea Cup Faux Fur Pin Cushion!

Hello all! Today I needed a pin cushion like you wouldn't believe! I was working on a project that called for an enormous amount of pins and had them scattered all over my work table so I decided to take a "time-out" and make me a pin cushion!

Here's what I did!


What you will need:

  1. A tea cup
  2. Some faux fur (I used white)
  3. A bit of fiber fill (the stuff you find in a pillow) just enough to fill your cup an inch from the top
  4. Hot glue
  5. Scissors

Cut your fur..

Once you have all of your materials you will want to lay the fur out with the back side facing up and trace your tea cup opening onto the back side of your faux fur. (Tip: leave a tab on both sides as seen in photo below. This helps in the gluing process and keeps everything tight.)

Fast and dirty crafting, I like it! Seems definitely doable and super fast. I'm sure it would would with other materials i have on hand, since I have no fur. It might be cool if you have a tea cup and saucer and super glue the cup to the saucer to make it cuter. :-)
