A special thanks to jen segrest for posting a how-to tutorial on flickr for her darling little bottle cap pin cushions. I've been wanting one tiny enough to fit in my bead box and this is it. It certainly would have never occurred to me to make one like this...kudos to her generosity and cleverness!
Of course, being a beader, I had to add a couple of beads for the birdies eyes and a tiny glass ladybug bead...
Here's the URL for the tutorial on flickr...

How cute these little pincushions are. Thanks for the link --- been there to visit ;-)
It was fun to make...now I'm soliciting 2-liter bottle caps from friends and when I get the baskets finished, I'll make a few more....I've got some ideas for fun color combinations.
I love this because I love birdies. So adorable.... I need one! :)
30 minutes, tops, to make one, lb! would love to see what you come up with...
