| | What You Do
1. Trace around your mug or bowl onto the material.

3. Sew around the perimeter of the circle with a running stitch. Do not clip the thread ends. Remove the needle. Set aside.
4. Paint the papermache container with craft paint and set aside to dry completely.
5. Pick up your material and pull the thread tight
6. When the material looks like a tiny little bag, put as much batting inside as you can.
7. Pull the thread until the bag is closed.
8. Glue the ball you have onto the inside of the container lid and wait for it to dry.
9. This makes a lovely pin cushion and you should be able to place the lid back onto the container as well. Use to store buttons, needle threaders, thimbles and other small items.
10. If you like, personalize the lid with "#1 Mom" or "Grandma" using a craft pen. |
