These are dress form pin cushions. I thought they were cute so I made a few for the craft show.

Thank you. Yes it makes a cute added touch. I also like the large buttons on head...reminded me of a large hat on them.

Thank you...I used a woman's best friend...A glue gun. I put the foam bottom on bottom and glued the material in place then I glued it to the holder. The neck is a large wooden bead that I found at a yard sale and the buttons are from a sweet friend.

by bonnetgirl 22 Feb 2012
I purchased them at the dollar store and they are metal. I also look at yard sales and thrift stores for them...I have several short crystal one's
