Cute pin toppers on cute pin cushions

What are these?  Ice cream?  Cup cakes?  Jelly?  Er…a unique flower? NO!  These are handmade pin toppers on interesting pin cushions from Pinks & Needles!

And what in the world is a pin topper?  According to GigiMinor who coined this term, it’s basically a sewing pin but with a surprise on the top like a cupcake or mushroom, maybe even a piece of fruit!  ”Think of it as a little bling for your pin cushion!”  Some of them, like the rainbow sprinkle cupcake, chocolate brioch,black forest brownie or strawberry shortcakes, are simply delicious looking!  They’re 101% cute!

Yes, these pins are for sewing purposes but who’s to stop you from using them as interesting decor pieces for that little corner on the table complete with the pin cushions?  And a good excuse is that most of them cost less than US$7!

Who knows?  They may even inspire you to take up sewing as a hobby!
