Boo the Black Bird




I just finished this one of a kind Halloween , Fall, Autumn, Thanksgiving pincushion. I think this turned out sooo cute. I had this little spray of vintage flowers with fuzzy berries in my stash, the colors are perfect to go with the 60's "Fire King" cup. I glittered the pin heads and made different tags to take this little guy from Sept. thru Nov. I gave him a spritz of gimmer mist so it has a little sparkle to it. I just added this to my ebay today.

OH MAN! This is the cutest use of those fire king cups I've ever seen! You are UNBELIEVABLY TALENTED! Let me know if you need more, I find them for dirt cheap all the time!

I don't really have a program for adding my name onto my photos; it's a feature of my HP scanner editing software. I have to edit the photo and choose to add "text" to it...
